Re: So is Africa still good in football?
Morocco qualified from the CAF region and they are an African country . you should learn to encourage your own ... They aren't better than us. The worldcup isn't designed for CAF, CONCACAF or AFC to win it. shebi we get 9 teams in 2026..we go see..Scipio Africanus wrote: ↑Tue Dec 06, 2022 6:53 pm Morocco does not play like fools, like the typical African team.

Re: So is Africa still good in football?
Tunisia is also very well organized. Germany was bounced in the 1st round of their WC too. Does that mean they don't have an organized league?

Oh really, interesting we finding this out from you NOW and not in the group stages, you could have said at the time that Africa can't play football EXCEPT MoroccoScipio Africanus wrote: ↑Tue Dec 06, 2022 6:53 pm Morocco does not play like fools, like the typical African team.

Anyone can make an argument for or against anything
One thing is clear, its very likely we "African fans" that are naive about football and not the players who are professionals and dont go out to a game wit an intention to lose or play badly

Re: So is Africa still good in football?
The top African and Asian teams can compete with the the European and South American teams once you exclude the top 5 or 6 European teams and Brazil/Argentina. Unfortunately the dominance of these 8 teams or so is used to justify the places allocated to European and South American teams. The 48 team format will offer African and Asians teams opportunities to progress to the latter stages, even if from a statistical standpoint alone. Theee is a possibility of an African team being seeded if FIFA rankings are used. These small details account for some of the reasons we struggle to make deep runs in the World Cup.We might not yet see much progress in 2026 but it will surely come with more slots.

Re: So is Africa still good in football?
Do a probability analysis of 50% likely win outcome for each team at any game in the world cup and a European team wins the cup. So the number of teams from each federation works in their favor.

Re: So is Africa still good in football?
Every post of yours has the word "naive" in it, even when that is not the topic under discussion. Did someone call you naive at work? See this is what happens when you spend too much time with Oyinbos exclusively. If you don't have strong self esteem you begin to take every bit of criticism personally.akamoke wrote: ↑Tue Dec 06, 2022 8:20 pmI just love how folks are trying to jsutify their position by adding jara when their initial premise has been debunkedwanaj0 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 06, 2022 7:14 pmBUT you were not discussing Nigeria but rather AFRICAScipio Africanus wrote: ↑Tue Dec 06, 2022 7:10 pmTunisia is also very well organized.

A well adjusted person understands that they are separate from their actions. A mental weak, inferiority complex-riddled person with low self esteem CANNOT accept even a grain of criticism because in their mind it confirms their already very low opinion of themselves. Of course these people hide their low self esteem by being excessively proud of being [insert any nationality here].
Go ahead and reply, and don't forget to use the word "naive" again!

However, I won't let you ascribe that statement to me, I am just pointing out the ridiculousness of the statement which people use simply because they heard some European TV commentator use it..but hey lets use it on CE to make us seem like we are making intelligent analysis
Criticisms is ok but calling people brainless, naive, unable to play football...that's not criticism , that is insult and hardly helpful
On your other point, so its easy to criticize but when asked to step to the plate, its someone else's job
Got it!!!
