The away team created a good chance at the start of the second half with Islam Slimani somehow managing to drag a close-range shot wide of the target.

But any hopes of a way back into the tie was ended when Mbatha fired a rocket of a shot into the Belouizdad goal.

Pirates did endure a few nervy moments as they worked to keep their opponents out, and Abdelroauf Benguit finally found a way through, in the second minute of injury time, but it was too little too late, as Bucs celebrated an important win.
