Nasser Al-Johar

Playing career Al-Johar played for Al Nassr FC. though he was fired after Saudi Arabia lost all 3 matches and failed to score a single goal.

Al-Johar briefly returned to manage the Saudi Arabia national team in September 2004 but left again in November 2004.

When coach Hélio dos Anjos was fired in June 2008, Al-Johar was hired to replace him for the rest of the 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification returning to coach the national team for a third time. Al-Johar resigned from coaching The Green Falcons in February 2009 after the team lost to North Korea in the AFC fourth round of 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification; he was replaced with José Peseiro. The Saudi Arabia Football Federation announced the "reclusive" Al-Johar would continue to support the team as a "technical advisor". 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.
