Pitso Mosimane guided Al Ahly to a win over Palmeiras on penalties in the 2020 Fifa Club World Cup third-place playoff match at Education City Stadium in Al Rayyan, Qatar on Thursday.

Al Ahly coach Pitso Mosimane was not satisfied after his side finished third at the 2020 Fifa Club World Cup finals on Thursday following a win over Brazilian side Palmeiras.

For a competition that promises to crown the world s best club side, it never really tends to captivate football fans in the way that FIFA would like to imagine.
Besides, the winter-held tournament tends to just be a victory lap for whichever team won the Champions League the season before, even if there are some glorious exceptions to that rule.
