The Red Castle have drawn five league matches in a row and were eliminated from the Moroccan Throne Cup, a situation that led to the South African tactician being allowed to remain with the team only until the end of the season.
According to LesiteInfo, Mokwena and his technical team convened a meeting with the players where they emphasized the necessity of not giving up until the campaign shuts.
The report has highlighted that the 38-year-old mentor encouraged the Red Castle players to put forth their utmost effort and win all the games to possibly book a place in the Champions League.
