Morocco was good but I liked their CHAN team better tbh. Maybe it had a little to do with the coaching because I have never seen Herve coach a high scoring squad. |

elyte89: My brother it is not likely that Saudi beats Uruguay, but the chances are still there. Something weird can happen like Uruguay collecting an early red card and conceding an early penalty too. Just like the case of Colombia vs Japan. You never can tell. Egypt are not out yet. 1 Like |

I’ve been saying we need to change the format of CAF WC qualification although it has favored us sometimes. We need several preliminary rounds and a final 12 countries that would play in a mini-league format. All the rounds should be spread such that the qualification matches for the next WC begin immediately after the end of the current WC. Africa would be better represented and a larger pool of players involved. Modified AFCON should be held once in every 4 years instead. Icon79: |

Big Joe, I am big supporter of that idea myself; however, that might not even be the panacea to having these mediocre Arab countries from representing us. Because they tend to play well against African oppositions, it's only when they get to the world stage that they often forget how to play football ![]() ![]() ![]() O pari Joebie: |

Bingo! And like I said yesterday, that's the problem we had in the game against Croatia. Rohr tried to make us play with defensive organization that those Scandinavian countries. But that's not in our DNA. Senegal on the other hand who are coached by a son of the soil, came with their typical African football, with pace and power, and they got a result.

Icon79: hahaha big talk! Remember the best African performance in the last World Cup was from Algeria. When last did Cameroun get even 1 point at a World Cup? The most embarrassing results from an African team in recent World Cups are Camerouns. What has Ivory Coast achieved in World Cups even with their golden generation? beating North Korea in 2010 and Serbia & Montenegro in 2006? no that one be result? lol Ghana has had ONE good world cup (2010), same for Cameroun (1990), same for Senegal (2002). All African teams have it all to prove because right now there are considered nobodies in World football. 1 Like |

In that case, Both Colombia and Germany also have bigger reputations than Morocco. Also, Japan bigger than Iran in Asia is quite a debate my friend. Mexico is no question. But in all, it doesn't change the fact Morocco is indeed a good side. M7even: 1 Like 1 Share |

Nerdie, that's the problem! These North Africans tend to up their game when they meet African oppositions, but they always get intimidated when they get to the world stage. I mean, you know as well as I do that Ghana would've gotten a result against Uruguay and would've, most likely, beaten Russia. There's nothing special about Russia. Watch them collapse against Uruguay in the next game. O pari TheSuperNerd: |

Then it is our west African's brothers duties to beat these guys themselves and indeed show that they belong at the World cup. We cannot wait until CAF does something. In fact, CAF will never do such and we both know it. At U-17 level, look at what CAF even did. They just reduced Africa's chances of having strong reps at the FIFA U-17 WC going forward (they zoned the qualifiers to enable other regions gain better chances of being represented at the CAF U-17 Afcon when in it's former format, West Africa always produces Africa's strongest going to the U-17 mundial). Is that the CAF that will do what O pari master, Icon79 is suggesting? Mehn I don't think so. When Nigeria missed out on the Afcon because of Egypt, I accepted it because we just fell short even though we had our problems. Egypt were better and they still went on to reach the Afcon final. If you wanna be at the world cup, then our brothers too must flex same muscles these North Africans flex and humble them big time. Finito. chrisooblog: 1 Like 1 Share |
