Why Cameroon did not beat England in WC '90

This is a good read.

"Why do African teams struggle in the World Cup? It has everything to do with colonialism."

"It surely won’t be long before another African team emerges capable of reaching the last four or even winning the World Cup. When it does, we can only hope that its coach and players have learned from Fanon and Biko that they can prevail—if they free themselves of the chains the colonizer has planted in their heads."

which African team got to the last 4?
The only one that got the closest was Ghana (not Cameroon)
Nwabali -- Aina, Bassey, TroostEkong, Sanusi --- Chukwueze, Aribo, Ndidi, Iwobi --- Osimhem, Sadiq Umar
