Orlando Pirates coach Mandla Ncikazi says his team will not change the approach, when they host Libyan team Al Ahli Tripoli in the CAF Confederation Cup second leg semi-final next weekend.

The Buccaneers will go into that match with an advantage after they beat the Libyan team 2-nil away in Benghazi on Sunday night.They, unfortunately, lost that final to Tunisian giants Etoile du Sahel 2-1 on aggregate in a two-legged final.

“We have to prepare the same way, prepare as if it’s 0-0, we mustn’t think that we have won the match, it’s only halftime. This is a good team; we don’t want to be surprised when they come at home, they can play. They have tall players, they can play direct, and we just have to be mindful of that. I am just glad that we have the foot in the right place and we were very positive today.”

They then topped Group B with 13 points from six matches. In the quarter-finals, they defeated Simba from Tanzania 4-3 on penalties after the two teams were level 1-all on aggregate over two legs. “We played against a good team, these Tripolians are a very good team but it was important that Pirates should win. I just want to thank the players and the management for their logistical support, it was not going to be possible if they did not give the support. But we played a very good team, very tactically good but I am just proud of our team for winning away from home and giving us a chance that when we go back home we have a chance to win at home.

But Mandla there's something I really don't understand, Why everytime when O. Pirates play with Northern African players there's always a crisis and I see FIFA or SAFA doesn't say anything about this ( switching of the lights or using laser lights WHY)
