00:00 the way. Flanked by Mustafa Shalabi and the infamous Zizo. So the referee blows the whistle and away we go in Kumasi. The Total Energy's Champions League semi-final between Dreams FC and Zamelec. The all important second leg. Dreams in their traditional green and black shooting from left to right as we watch on. Nigerian side will have to go some to turn that one around.
00:29 Here, though, it remains very much in the balance. Still waiting for deadlock to be broken in the tie. Will it be done so now? Ball into the middle was from Mustafa Shalabi.
00:39 It's a shot on target. Free kick was comfortable enough. I think in truth for Mohammed Awad.
01:05 It's a shot on target. It's a shot on target. It's a shot on target. It's a shot on target. It's a shot on target. It's a shot on target. It's a shot on target.
01:12 Ahmed Fatou finding himself in the box, the left back. How big an away goal will be for Zamelec here? They have a corner now and there is the away goal.
01:25 And just as I mentioned, the away goal.
01:38 Thus it appears in what is Dreams will now have to score two.
01:44 Or it will be the end of their dream run. Matt Laughty sneaking in.
01:55 Was allowed to drop all the way. Last year, much their best of six.
02:02 They are currently struggling down in 15th.
02:15 Certainly a far more offensive position than expected. It's Dreams in the offensive position here. Their biggest moment so far.
02:33 Another ball forwards.
02:47 Zamelec take control.
02:50 And their number nine makes it two.
02:57 And Dreams now with it all to do.
03:04 It was nice build-up play.
03:09 I think I might have given Shalabi too little credit.
03:15 Zamelec struggling to thoroughly clear their lines here.
03:30 It was a half-hearted shot.
03:33 And on the other side, Jazeerian has mentioned Akinnula. Nigerian born. Benin International. Here come the Ghanaians. It's back to Antwi and he's fluffed his lines.
03:48 Nissa wins the battle there with Emad. Takes the throw quickly. Emad springs back to his feet. It's forwards to Barateg Mensah.
03:57 It might just drop for Antwi but very harsh.
04:04 It's just a corner for now.
04:07 Punched half-way by Awad and cleared more emphatically by his captain.
04:11 Agyei takes it on. It's currently five on four.
04:15 It's a nice ball forwards as well for Agyei. He gets through. Pulls it back.
04:19 And it's a big save from Awad. It's still not over.
04:22 Issa fires it wide and drops to the turf. Head in hands. Was that the moment to spark the comeback?
04:30 Beautifully weighted ball forwards for Agyei. He had the presence of mind to pull it back.
04:35 Picked out. Barateg Mensah, his shot saved. Issa waited and waited for it to drop.
04:42 Nice contact but not quite the desired direction.
04:49 Big, big moment for Dreams and a big save from Awad.
04:54 To half-time with their two-goal lead intact.
04:59 Indeed it is.
05:01 Well, it's been a dream run in this tournament but the first half of the second leg of this semifinal has been something of a nightmare for Dreams.
05:17 And number 13, 9, Mohamed Shrahata.
05:21 Fresh legs, maybe a fresh approach for the second half. Will they be more defensive?
05:25 Let's find out. Referee blows the whistle. We are back underway in Kamasi for the second half of the second leg of the semifinal between Dreams FC and Zamalek.
05:35 It's Jaziri and it's broken kindly here. It's the wrong goal and it's the third.
05:44 And surely that's job done. Mustafa Shalabi has put Zamalek surely beyond doubt into the final of the Confederation Cup.
05:57 Removing his shirt.
06:06 Well, it was safe. Edin Jaziri with the all-important ball went through the legs, I think.
06:16 McCarthy Afuri.
06:20 And in on goal, Shalabi.
06:23 Able to keep his head and find the bottom corner.
06:28 A bit tired now in truth.
06:35 That's a lot of arse of Daryk Agyei. He did it though. Cuts inside.
06:43 New shot from just outside the Zamalek box. That one was Simba.
06:52 The spin and nearly the goal from Boateng Mensah.
06:57 And to...
07:02 The spirit. Still visible.
07:06 The head's dropping though. Abdelaziz Issa there.
07:11 I'm sure he'll be reliving that big chance late in the first half.
07:16 Ball dropped to him. Struck it cleanly but just wide.
07:20 That one not such a clean strike. He did claim a deflection. Didn't get the decision.
07:27 Looking for a fourth. Zizo chips it on forwards and it's so close to being a fourth.
07:37 Great vision and execution from Zizo.
07:41 Runtime to perfection as well but the finish.
07:48 It is a shot at goal. De De Le Man who won the free kick.
07:53 Trying to convert it but it will be Solomon Agbazi with the final touch.
08:00 Of what has been an amazing run for Dreams but one that comes to an end.
08:07 It is Dream over for the Guarnean club.
08:13 Zabalek go on to the final of the Confederation Cup.
