The assignment handed to Pitso Mosimane in Saudi Arabia is down to the last lap as he continues ticking all the boxes.

Jeddah Club was the first opponent that Mosimane faced in October after his appointment in a game that finished 1-1.
Since then, Mosimane has guided Al Ahli to 11 wins, five draws and one defeat moving the popular club from seventh position to the comforts of second place with promotion back to the Saudi Pro League well in sight.
Sitting on 46 points with 12 games remaining, Al Ahli can still afford to drop points and still finish in one of the top four positions.
The top four teams in the Yelo League (Saudi first division) will be promoted into the Saudi Pro League while winners will have the bonus of lifting the championship trophy which Mosimane’s team is also in contention to win.
Mosimane’s Al Ahli are tied with Al Hazm on 46 points, but their inferior goal difference means they occupy second place at present.
After playing Jeddah on Wednesday, Al Ahli will play Najran, Al Riyadh, and Al Faisaly through the month of March and ultimately finish against current leaders Al Hazm at the end of May.
