Nasser Hamad Al-Johar (
Club career
Al-Johar played for Al Nassr FC.[2]
Managerial career
Al-Johar coached the Saudi Arabia national team for both the 2000 AFC Asian Cup (replacing Milan Máčala) and 2002 FIFA World Cup (after replacing Slobodan Santrač),[2] though he was fired for failing to take the team to a Cup win that year.[4]
When coach
After losing to the Syria national team on 9 January 2011, it was announced that Al-Johar would replace Peseiro for the remainder of the 2011 AFC Asian Cup;[8] after two further losses (1–0 against Jordan and 5–0 against Japan), the perennial fix-it man for Saudi Arabia was again sacked, less than two weeks after taking the helm.[9]
