Josef Zinnbauer saw his 10-man JS Kabylie side play to a 1-1 draw with newly promoted team MB Rouissat in the Algerian Ligue 1 on Monday night.

JSK went a player down in the 38th minute as Arthur Bada received a straight red card, before Yacine Zeghad opened the scoring for the newcomers, two minutes after the hour mark.
Zinnbauer's men kept searching for an equalizing goal throughout the match and got a breakthrough in the 89th minute as Mostapha Rezkallah Bott salvaged a crucial point.
As a result, the former Orlando Pirates mentor's team sits ninth with 20 points from 14 matches in the Algerian topflight.
Notably, Zinnbauer's troops played to a one-all stalemate with Rulani Mokwena's MC Alger this past Friday - meaning they are winless in their last two league outings.

The German mentor is under pressure as JSK have only managed to register one win in their last nine matches across all competitions.
Up next for the ex-Bucs tactician is a clash against second-placed Sead Ramovic's CR Belouizdad on Saturday, 10 January.
