Pitso Mosimane's unbeaten run as Al Ahli coach came to a crushing end following a 4-1 thrashing at the hands of Al Akhdoud.

Defeat for Al Ahli leaves four teams on 37 points, only separated by goal difference, with Al Akhdoud and Al-Hazem occupying the top two spots with Mosimane’s side in third while Al Faisaly are fourth. He, however, met his waterloo on Tuesday as Al Akhdoud strolled over his side in the presence the watching Al Ahli members of the board to replace them at the top of the table on goal difference.
