Should Africa Still Participate In The World Cup by okewole(m): 6:23pm On Jun 27, 2006
Its seems to me dt African team are not really welcome to play in the world cup.Every match we played,we are always playing against the refree (Brasil Vs Ghana) which should not be so.
I think its high time we told FIFA dt we are not intrested in their world cup.

it is obviously racism. i have been watching the matches on ESPN and even the commentators makes mention of racism. Every lil fall, the referee gives yellow cards while when the white folks trip us, they call foul, sometimes, they don't even make any call. The referees also don't call offside. Brasils second goal against ghana was offside but the referees allowed it. it is just terrible. Look at what spains coach said about france Henry. he said all sort of racial slurs while motivating his players. the issue was brought up again and he was like "don't even talk about it". it is just sad. i do agree with you. Africa has been playing against the referees.

the ref's in general have been pretty crap. I don't think that many people would wake up in the morning and go "I really hate people from ghana today, lets make them lose"

in the first half of the ghana vs brazil match the ref was pulling out yellow cards like there was no end
i was really pissed but ghana still played a good match
even though they lost, im still proud of them cause they played a good match

I think the method of selecting africa's representatives to the world cup be changed.

Which kind of question is that? without Africans it wont be worldcup

Ghana have shown we have talent in Africa and I want new teams and countires like Uganda, Namibia,Gambia,Kenya,congo and other to appear in 2010.

When the referee favoured Ghana against USA in the first round, you did not complain. Now the tables turned against the same Ghana, you are complaining. sad
