IS THE ANC BECOMING A JOKE?

[owarean]

Immediate past winners:

2010: Egypt (no show at world cup)
2008: Egypt
2006: Egypt (no show at world cup)
2004: Tunisia (pretty average team; didn't do jack at the world cup in 2006)

Do people understand that playing qualifier is different from playing a tournament?

So are you telling me that the Ghanaian team of 92s with Abedi Pele and Yeboah were so mediocre that they couldnt qualify for the WC and win the Nations cup?

Let us go back to the late 70s to see the winners of ANC and the WCQ of that period in the WC years

ANC 78 - Winner Ghana - WCQ - Tunisia
ANC 82 - Winner Ghana - WCQ - Cameroun and Algeria
ANC 86 - Winner Egypt - WCQ - Morocco and Algeria
ANC 90 - Winner Algeria - WCQ - Egypt and Cameroun
ANC 94 - Winner Nigeria - WCQ - Nigeria, Morocco and Cameroon
ANC 98 - Winner Egypt - WCQ - Nigeria, Cmrn, Tunisia, Morocco and South Africa
ANC 2002 - Winner Cameroon - WCQ - Nigeria, Senegal, Cameroon, Tunisia, SA

So tell me has ANC be Mediocre since then?

Only 3 ANC winners have represented Africa in the last 30 years -

Nigeria - (2013 and 1994)
Cameroon - 2002

Before then, Zaire went to 74 WC.

But on a serious note, why is it that some nationals of other countries are so bent on trying to convince us (yes, the African Champions) that our ANC 2013 win is inferior or not recognized as compared to some convenient win in the past eh? That somehow, we didn't merit the win or probably beat nobodies in the run up to the Cup win.

Perhaps i need to remind them how it was won:

I mean after initially drawing with B .Faso and the then defending Champions Zambia 1-1, we then dispatched Ethiopia 2-0 in the group stages.

In the q/Finals the whole world said Les Éléphants of CIV would devour the Super Eagles of Nigeria, but one thing they didn't understand was that Nigerian's never like being called an underdog, especially to any fellow African and the Super Eagles soared and stripped Les Éléphants of CIV of all its Ivory and left them a carcass of themselves. Ah next were 'Les Aigles' of Mali who were already scared as the real Eagles, the Super Eagles of Nigeria swooped and plucked every feather of theirs leaving them to plummet to earth with a shuddering thud!

For the finals, the Super Eagles were in terrifying mood and were looking forward to facing the 'midgets', 'dwarfs', 'Small persons', 'little people', 'Pygmies' of Ghananesse extract....but alas, the Burkinabe of blessed Sankara memory had already ground those gnomes into the South African ground with special mention of the gigantic Bance who turned out to be a nightmare on Charly's street.

Suffice to say, the Ghananesse came up 'short' and the Super Eagles of Nigeria went on to 'break' the Burkinabe Black Stallions and slay the great 'Bance - Conqueror of the Black Stars' like Spartacus slaying Theokeles, the shadow of death to become the CHAMPIONS 2013 AFCON.

[pajimoh]

1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996

2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015?

16 tournaments since 1982. 16 winners and Ghana the so called top team in Africa, the over average team, the Brazil of Kumasi have not been able to win just one - one o

Ghana v Naija ANC medal table.
We've all been hearing how the bredas have 4 titles to our 3. Yep that is true. in 1980, it was 3-1 to the bredas (titles).
In 1982 it was 4-1 tot he bredas. In 2013 it's 4-3 to the bredas.

The bredas better start praying Nigeria don't get another win before them 'cos they will have to shut up forever

Ghana Gold 4 silver 4, bronze 1 = 9
Nigeria Gold 3, silver 4, bronze 7 = 14

So to answer .........

Yep, I seriously think so. How do people keep counting Ghana as a top team in Africa. I mean what a freaking joke
