Former Bafana Bafana coach Pitso Mosimane was handed the biggest defeat of his career in an 8-0 pak slae.
Tuesday night’s Saudi Pro League clash saw Bra Jingle’s relegation battlers Abha FC destroyed by Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr.
Ronaldo, 39, rolled back the years to score a first-half hat-trick and have a hand in former Liverpool star Sadio Mane’s strike as well as Abdulmajeed Al Sulayhim’s goal as they went into the break 5-0 up.
Mosimane says: “I bear full responsibility. We must accept the loss after committing many mistakes, and we must learn from this harsh lesson.
“Al Nassr gave us five goals with serious mistakes. I feel sorry for the player, Mohammed Al-Qahtani [22]. He is a young player and must learn from his mistakes in the upcoming matches.”
“Our first mission now is to stay in the Saudi League.”
