Al Ahly coach Pitso Mosimane celebrates after Al Ahly win the 2021 Caf Super Cup match against Raja Casablanca at the Ahmed bin Ali Stadium in Al Rayyan, Qatar on December 22 2021.has questioned why Al Ahly coach Pitso Mosimane was left off the Fifa shortlist for its Coach of the Year award for 2021 having won three international trophies in the period.
The article questions why a coach who won the 2019-2020 Caf Champions League final when Ahly beat Zamalek 2-1 in November 2020, defended that title beating Kaizer Chiefs 3-0 in the 2020-2021 final in July 2021, plus two Caf Super Cups in 2021, continues to be overlooked for Fifa's coaching award. “That it is the third place, not the string of firsts — two Champions Leagues accompanied by two African Super Cups — that Mosimane lingers on is instructive. It is a reminder that silver and gold are not the only measure of glory in management; achievement is necessarily relative to opportunity.
“He was not the only notable omission. Abel Ferreira was not there either, despite going one better than Mosimane and leading Palmeiras to two Copa Libertadores titles in the same calendar year. He did not make the top seven, let alone the top three. Those spots were taken by Thomas Tuchel, Pep Guardiola and Roberto Mancini.
FIFA need to be transformed. They can't shortlist Pitso because of his colour.
Color of his skin🤞
Why can't you also question them? Africans we hate each other's so you can't expect other continent to love us . Pitso is well deserved to be shortlist
Lets salute n support our Giant's for standing us in other countries🇿🇦👑
And TimesLive kept quiet. 🤔🤔🤔
Cz his black and his from Africa
You fail so much at journalism... always quoting tweets. Nou you are having to quote other papers.... I feel sorry for people who pay subscription
That time we keep on buying their luxury clothes like never before, and I sure they do not give back anything to Africa…cha Kunzima
Because he's Africa and mostly a black man and because he achieved them in Africa... This African continent is always rubbed. They say environment makes you or breaks you... This is example if Pitso was going to achieve this in Euro, it was a big different story.
And as a media house..you're not embarrassed?
bongzmessi They know why...racism
thando_mthonti Well it is rather shameful from FIFAcom but not surprising either.
Valid question 🙋🏽♀️
Simple... He is from Africa
And nina why didn't you question that
I don't know why they call it FIFA awards it should be called Europeans Only awards.
The color of our skin is said to be an opposite 😍 And it will always be If he was a European or so and still coaching Al Ahly in Africa, he was going to be shortlisted, mark my word
Africa needs to respect itself first before the world respects it
Because he is from Africa.
Because he is African and Fifa is a corrupt organization🤷🏾♂️
Lena lereng?
Yeah and I know a coach who won village u-12 cup
The truth is this FIFA and BALON D'OR Awards are not different from the UEFA Awards. It's more like European football awards meant for those in Europe
Goitsy_1 🤷♂️
sthebeworldwide Thanks to be New York Times for being 1st to acknowledge local African talent whole local media houses don't see it🙄
He is from Africa and Black AF.... Africans deserve nothing
Because of discrimination period
Fifa don't take African couches seriously especially South Africa
He is from Africa, I don't see other reason.
He comes from the wrong continent.
Why y’all making a fuss out of this...aker mara according to fifa every league and cup has points and ranks, a coach in Africa can win as many trophies as they want but our competitions are ranked way lower than the likes of european countries, so relax there’s agenda here
Let fifa be exposed! Good article
Let's learn to embrace South African talent and support each other. Pitso Mosimane is good at what he does and he deserves it.
nrakhadani would yu look at that - catching fire... 😁
lefamorobe These FIFAcom awards are only for European players and coaches
Hes black and from Africa..its definitely not a mistake that he was left out of the shorlist...
Racism is demon
This shows that FIFAcom has ZERO regard for African football.
Why did he fail with Bafana Bafana?when they paid for his traning
One more reason y Africa must unite n show the world their real might s one united Africa on all aspects of life

What were you and other Mainstream media of SouthAfrica doing ? SAEditorsForum ThumaMinaMediaGroup are focused on being used to fight political battles instead.
Because he is Black.
He's African, what do u expect? If u not in Europe or African u will not be considered.
Cause he made it not in Europe. That’s the sad truth. Thanx that the NT asks this question. Football is far beyond Europe, don’t forget also Africa.
vuksido He is black and he is coaching in Africa....thats y...Racist fifa...and they politics.
FIFA don't like Africa it's like a stepchild for them....
MandisaM9 He is black, African and comes from a jungle...
So you are NEWS bankrupt to an extent that you report on what other publications are reporting?
Fifa don't take Africa serious and we're don't care
Because he's black!
Dlula_B For the first one you are reclaiming your reporting skills back.
Cause he is black
And fuckers were waiting for new York times?
Because it's a popularity contest. We will celebrate his accomplishments and wish him more to come. Kudos.
Because he is African
We need answers! Fifa needs to explain their selection methodology! Sport is for all races.
I think people were fighting Jurgen Klopp when he said African cup is small yet the reality is that, Africa is never really taken serious by Europe and the other continents including Americas. Fact.
Because he's black,we all know that.
I bet everyone knows this is because he's from Africa. *off ramp* where were your journalist use ubuze ngabantu bangaphandle?
FIFA is not for African Football. 🤞
If only u cud know the meaning of the country he won from that is where u can get it😅
He's black and from Africa that's why.
Racism and colonial hangover, they think Africa is from Jupiter's moon Gunyemede.
REASON: He is African and black
He is Son of the soil, Africa will respect him
Are South African Journalists really South Africans?, I've never seen such an useless and unpatriotic career in South Africa worse than it.
He is black, he comes from an impoverished continent, and yes, HE IS BLACK.
Well done New York Times, South African journalists are sleeping on duties.
He is Black.
Simple it because he is an African
FIFAcom
Why is FIFA moving like they are UEFA? Football exists outside of Europe.
Great question!
Loyiso Why would he get shortlisted ahead of the coaches who beat him head-to-head on the global stage? This includes Asian and South American coaches he lost to ... Let's be realistic and realise Al Ahly's standing in the global game.
We all kno the answer
Europeans are not ready for Africans ~Pitso Mosimane~
He's Black FFS!!!!
Masuluke's story. We sleep on the job in SA. We will wake up when the world points. This says a lot about our journalism in SA, football federation And Africa as a whole.
He deserved it even salah but coz they are Africans....
It took New York Times to release such an article.... Konje we do not have journalists in SA.
FIFA is a group of racists men who will never recognize African players / coaches
The descent of slaves questions everything in America
Good
He is Black, it is that simple
Because African cups are considered small competitions
Your job is to investigate and question this discrimination happening and report on it, not this copy paste about questioning.
I'm questioning why it took the Times of NY to make this story relevant, yet the times of SA where Pitso comes from said nothing, only now hanging onto NY Times coat tails
Because he’s black n from Africa in fact South Africa TheRealPitso ☝🏽
He is an African couching in Africa.
Still he is the best coach ever
Because he's African
Because african trophies are second-rate competitions......
And i can't remember FIFA body selecting a player of the year from Africa, while also not being sure of South America and Asia,most of our players have to cross the sea to Europe in order to compete for those titles, and I consider this as slavery in disguise
That is simple lenyatso. We Africans never approves our own.
Bafana bafana vs Ghana case which FIFI ruled in favor of Ghana showed Africans that FIFA hate and want to destroy African football. Mr Pitso Mosimane he must just forget about FIFA.
EvolSiLla This is grossly unfair. Need for investigation.
Because he is African and coaches an African team
Because mainstream White-sponsored trophies are often reserved for white gays.
It's reserved for Europeans
Football is dead.
Caf is quet as well
He is African that's why
FIFA is racist FIFA PRo11 - no salah ,no mendy (best keeper)
SavedOneClick
Let's not be political correct about it, The don't take blacks seriously
They steal everything, our minerals, our land, awards, Caster Semenya bekabashiya banye and they came with stories, Serena Williams endless drug tests cos you know why... Tiger Woods downfall was because he cheated his wife, imagine all that racist bullshit, nxa
Because FIFA Only works for European countries or European side Only, they don't care about Africa, no matter how African coaches and footballers can perform best of the best but never will recognize by FIFA, only recognize on football cases Africa against each other.
Any black person must forget about these European accolades
Cos he knows the secret?
Because he's a black man from Africa. They hate us. No wonder Salah and Mendy was not in the FIFA 11.
Why didn't you question it Cos you ro busy with your nonsense journalism in SA.
Coz he is not a FRANCOPHONE
Race... Black excellence
KiiNG_18 Easy, he's African
Gao_Nkgwe For him to he considered, he must beat European Teams....
Because his African
Richy_Mricho If African players who play in their leagues don't get recognized, what makes you think they will recognize a coach who coaches in Africa. To be honest Europe only matters when it comes to football.. the rest of the other continent doesn't mean jack
Mr___________MT Its no secret that African football is substandard.
We should ask that & why CAF_Online isnt asking this question & directing it to FIFAcom or was his name put forward & rejected.....
Richy_Mricho Maybe everything African is not good enough. Whoever will win this must decline it because you cannot be seen to be the best if you have not out completed the best.
Ignorance Pleads goes on on Black, Non White, Africa's ( that too best )
The way your publication is so useless, you guys write stories about other publication’s headlines…..🤦🏾♂️😅 just stick to gossiping about mam Lindiwe.
Because he is black and in Africa. Nothing good comes of Africa. Lol
FIFAcom should be renamed to Uefifa..they are a joke 🙄
Kante, Salah, Mane, Drogba, Eto' - you can name all of them, thier skin color has worked against them. Kante is currently the perfect exam.
He's black, that's why 😤😤 It's '22 and it's about time we stop beating around the bush.
He's AFRICAN that's his crime! Hypocrites 🚮
While Times Live was focused on tarnishing Mam Lindiwe Sosulu's image.
🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔South Africans. I remember the last time he was here you booed him.
I totally agree with him, Coach Pitso has proved without reasonable doubt that he is a force to reckon. He deserve his accolades while his still alive. 👏
robertmarawa Your wise views..?
Racism at full play
Africa doesn't matter 😏
Journalism is truly dead 😂💀
The time they didn't give Masuluke the goal of the year award I was enlightened...
Tsietsi_Mohale It's called journalism, you should try it.
Let me wait for your views or your take on this......I'm fit to wait the whole night...
FIFAcom the Best Awards for only Euporean

It's because he is an African.
Racism
Bloody racist FIFAcom
Because it's African
Fifa see us as Baboons not as human beings.
Because he is African and he is black.They are all racists
It's very sad 😔
N yet is a good question.... That we all know the answer to
The answer is obvious, he is black from Africa. The only continent that is underrated.
FIFAcom only recognize white European players. Fifa is a racist organizations. Samuel etto once said
Because he is black and African child
Pitso is black man from South Africa
He's black!!
Yet none of his country’s Media House asked the question
The award is only reserved for Europeans unfortunately........ The skin colour and the continent we are from that's our problem.
The now pretend as if they don't know that such awards are reserved for those rendering their service to Europe
sthabiso_za He's not white enough
His legendary
Ntux_Mogale And what did say other than copying and pasting? Couldn't you see the obvious 🤔🤷🏾♂️🤦🏿♂️
Jealousy is all I can say
So what's your take
FIFA awards are for the Europeans
Fifa is racist.
Very lazy journalism
Why didn't you question it 1st? You're reporting on what other news outlets are reporting 🙄
Heeelllo he is African,,,,FIFA don't recognise anything African
Because he is Black. Coaching While Black is a crime remember. It's a no brainer mos
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣and only now Times LIVE take notice of Pitso's importance when New York Times write about him,🤣🤣..
