Looking for a perl-compatible regex solution

This is for PHP preg_match code - which is PCRE therefore looking for a perl compatible suggestion

I have this line returned I want to match and return..

Code:
[awk -F, '(NR==2) {print $3"ABCXYZ"}' portfolio-hierarchy .csv  RootABCXYZ ^dg@torpsbe1\[1mClient_Source/20140403%

I want to match the two instances of string ending 'ABCXYZ' into an array.
And on second element (ie. RootABCXYZ) only return the word "Root"..

Thanks in advance Smilie

NAME
PCRE - Perl-compatible regular expressions SYNOPSIS
#include <pcre.h> int pcre_get_stringnumber(const pcre *code, const char *name); DESCRIPTION
This convenience function finds the number of a named substring capturing parenthesis in a compiled pattern. Its arguments are: code Compiled regular expression name Name whose number is required The yield of the function is the number of the parenthesis if the name is found, or PCRE_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING otherwise. When duplicate names are allowed (PCRE_DUPNAMES is set), it is not defined which of the numbers is returned by pcre_get_stringnumber(). You can obtain the com- plete list by calling pcre_get_stringtable_entries(). There is a complete description of the PCRE native API in the pcreapi page and a description of the POSIX API in the pcreposix page. ATTRIBUTES
