Which African country can WIN the FIFA World Cup?

Post by Kabalega »

Which African country can WIN the FIFA World Cup? | Do Senegal, Egypt or Morocco have a ANY chance?
They didn’t mention Nigeria? :)

Anyway, an African country would have to be super organized (off the green grass first) to win the WC.
Right now, Morocco is the most organized but Senegal has the most talent. Let us not forget the current African champs.

Morocco is the only country with the organization and the talent, they were only 1 game away from the final last time. Nigeria has the talent but we’re light years away in organization. CIV has talent but I don’t think they have the organization just yet. Cameroun could also do well but organization is not there yet. Btw, Kenya has no chance.

Pakistan will invite India over for a hog roast before an African nation wins the World Cup. Too. Far. Behind. If any can equal Morocco’s feat in the States that will be a mighty accomplishment.

Going back to that Morocco semifinal, you have to know your limitations. If Morocco had played the same kind of game they played against Portugal, or slightly more defensive against France, even maybe taking France to PKs, maybe they would have made the final.

IMO they had the quality to beat Argentina.

No chance. Egypt would have more chance repelling Alexander the Great than winning the Mundial. Africa is too far behind. Sentiment and blind patriotism aside, there’s a reason none have won it since inception. They’re not good enough and without significant investment, never will be.

Kenya has Benni McCarthy as coach. :thumbs:
The KFF has a new leadership team, led by a successful businessman and an astute former footballer Macdonald Marita.
They have so far lost only one game, :shock: a 2-1 loss to Gabon and CAF approved Nyayo Stadium. So, no more home games on foreign soil. :)

It will be a tall order to make up the five points and catch up to CIV, but it is possible. :)

Coachito :rotf: :rotf: :rotf:

England once won the World Cup with, perhaps, the most untalented array of players to ever win it. Africa, at least, has some talent so, anything is possible🤔😀❗️

Another draw. Not a bad start for Benni. I think Gambia should do better and build on their recent AFCON experience.

One of the more organized African nations that strikes luck with a generation of great talent.

Morocco or Algeria.

They are not Africans. They are Arabs
When Morrocco did well at the World Cup, they said they did it for Arabs
It was only after black Africa complained that they added Africa.

They're African whether they like it or not. The name "Africa" actually comes from North Africa.
