We should never again send more than one North African side to the World Cup.
Disgraceful.

I get the Yabis and frustration, but I cut Egypt some slack. 1st time in a while. Salah playing hurt. Challenged country.

These things are built over LOTS of time. Maybe this will be part of a continuous evolution for Egypt? Countries like France and England only won once and have their share of howler WC outings and even missing out.

And Africa will continue to ask for more teams. We need 10 teams ... hell, we need 20 teams at the world cup.

I had a feeling Egypt would lose. North African teams always flop at the World level. Only Algeria and maybe Morocco try to rep well. I predicted all 3 would flop and flop they did. Well its up to West Africa now. Nigeria, Senegal and Colombia. :twisted:

Shame on Egypt. 0 points from the weakest group. Well, at least they got to see what Russia looks like :tic: :!:


Cheers.

To be honest I wasn't enthused about our North African contingent to this WC for good reason.

Fears roundly confirmed.

But what does this say about the Sub Saharan African countries that could not qualify from their group during the qualifiers? Do we know for sure that Ghana would have done better than Egypt, or CIV better than Morocco?

Egypt has sucked for over a year now. I knew we'd lose to Saudi and am happy I sold my tix for that's match. Please don't make any excuses on our behalf. We're out because our players suck and Cuper made bad decisions this year. My thread prior to the WC pointed out our limitations:

These things are built over LOTS of time. Maybe this will be part of a continuous evolution for Egypt? Countries like France and England only won once and have their share of howler WC outings and even missing out.
matey, Nigeria, Senegal, Ghana, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Ivory Coast, South Africa all won matches in their first world cup appearance (the first three all won multiple matches), the last two plus Cameroon won multiple WC matches by their second appearance. Egypt has yet to win a world cup match. They have only one world cup point. Angola has TWO from only one appearance compared to Egypt's three appearances and Mo Salah is arguably the biggest African star to grace the world cup.

Nah bruh, can't excuse this. Saudi Arabia??? :-x

I can't believe Kabalenga was shouting here about how Group E was the toughest WCQing group in Africa hence Egypt was the strongest team to qualify from Africa.

He also said Nigeria was in the weakest group hence one of the weakest teams to qualify. :rotf:
