'Relebohile Mofokeng's mistakes affected Orlando Pirates' attacking momentum & Sipho Chaine worked overtime to save Jose Riveiro's side! Patrick Maswanganyi is Bucs' heartbeat' - Fans

The Buccaneers and Red Devils shared spoils in the continental outing at the Orlando Stadium as the two teams failed to produce goals.

Orlando Pirates were held to a goalless draw by the defending Caf Champions League champions Al Ahly on Saturday afternoon.

Monnapule Saleng and Paseka Mako are some of the players who started the game, with Relebohile Mofokeng replacing Patrick Maswanganyi in the number 10 role.

The result means Africa's Club of the Century remain top of Group C with four points, the same as the Sea Robbers who have an inferior goal difference.

While some players have been lauded for their performance, some have been slammed for a poor show.

Great work at the back but upfront was so disappointing. I expected some runs through the pockets for goal creation. Nonetheless we'll done Bucs family - Nkosi Slater

Al Ahly didn't come to win
We played, but honestly, we were not convincing enough. This Al Ahly team didn't come here to win but to make sure they don't lose the game. I guess we will just take the point, but we could have won this game, honestly. Our coach made the changes very late in the game; we didn't even get to see the boys that were brought in - Nonhlanhla Dube

Tito is Pirates' heartbeat
This was an incredibly tough match, very tough! That wall of Berlin defense of Al Ahly is strong and experienced, almost impossible to break. I'm one of those who say Tito is seriously Orlando Pirates heartbeat, we often struggle in his absence. Fair result in my opinion though, Wow! - SC Shaimah

Chaine saved Pirates
Sipho Chaine was working overtime today, he saved Orlando Pirates big time - Locrecia Mologadi

Mofokeng struggled
Mofokeng struggled to hold onto the ball today, and it's fair to say that his mistakes impacted our attacking momentum. However, I think it's interesting that if Tito were in his shoes, the criticism from fans would be deafening - Jackmerius Tacktheritrix
