(VIDEO) Orlando Pirates living a dream coach Roger de Sa

Orlando Pirates top Group B after completing a rare double with their second Egyptian scalp in a fortnight, with a rampant 4-1 victory over Zamalek in their Caf Champions league group A match at Orlando Stadium on Saturday.

Goals from Lennox Bacela, Tlou Segolela, Sifiso Myeni and Daine Klate helped Pirates rise to a four goal total few would have expected.

With the win, Pirates moved further ahead at the top of their group on seven points after three games, with both AC Leopards and Al Ahly on four points.
