Mahier Davids, who is Mosimane's assistant, was in the dugout as Al Wahda made it back-to-back wins in the league, which saw them move up to fifth place on the log standings.
Their win also saw them close the gap to just five points behind leaders Al Wasl.
Eyebrows were raised after Mosimane, who was understood to have made a full recovery, did not travel with his team despite being discharged from hospital, following a health scare.
However, a well-placed source informed the crew that Mosimane's absence was a precautionary measure from the doctors, who advised against the coach travelling with the team on Saturday.
"The coach is okay. He is doing well. The only reason why he was not at the game was because the game was played away and the travel would be too long. He is perfectly fine," the source informed the Siya crew.
The good news for Mosimane is that his side do not have a fixture scheduled until 24 November, giving the coach ample time to fully recover and use the time to fine tune his side's tactical approach that would see them mount a full title challenge.
