The South African manager's side shipped five goals in a 5-0 loss to Al Shabab. 

With an inspired performance from ex-Atletico Madrid winger Yannick Carrasco, Al Shabab had 20 shots at goal compared to Abha's six. 

The Belgian netted twice in the SPL encounter, with his first coming in the first minute of added time before the break. 

Habib Diallo then doubled Al Shabab's lead in the 57th minute, before substitute Carlos scored a brace after being introduced as a second-half substitute. 

Carrasco added his second of the night in injury time to hand Mosimane's side their third-heaviest defeat of the league season.

The result means Abha remain only a point from safety ahead of 16th-placed Al Akhdoud, who have a game in hand.
