Why do African teams stop playing when they score?

Post by bamenda boy »

A trend I have noticed with most African teams. If/when they are winning, and they happen to score especially in the second half, they stop to play and start some delaying tactics, like feigning injuries, wasting time to do anything etc etc, instead of going for the kill. Look at the Senegal game. England was up and decided to go for the kill. If that were an African team, they would have stopped playing. I hate that ish to the T.

How about why African players don’t ask to go to bathroom once they score

"It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is. If the--if he--if 'is' means is and never has been, that is not--that is one thing. If it means there is none, that was a completely true statement....Now, if someone had asked me on that day, are you having any kind of sexual relations with Ms. Lewinsky, that is, asked me a question in the present tense, I would have said no. And it would have been completely true."
