Why Do African Teams Fail At The World Cup? 

🖐

Meee

Meeeeeeeeeeeee

South Korea made to 4 th controversally. and 2002 wc was in south korea and japan

Morocco

Now it’s Morocco 😢

@@juda210 why are u sad tho

@BakarYT Im sad cuz they weren’t able to make it to the finals

He woulda never become a World Cup winner. The problem is there’s so many countries in Africa if they halved the countries to put more talent together they would’ve had so many god squads imagine players like yaya drogba okakcha weah mane and salah playing together. Would have 1 or 2 wc easy

He was born and raised in France , and was closer to playing for Algeria, that the biggest problem apart from occasionally one or two great players mane,Salah,weah there isn't alot of great African players as there no infrastructure. Look at Tunisa and morroco the majority of the teams are Europe born

They don't. Some of the guys aren't even born there.

Mbappe can also play for Algeria

If Mbappe played for Cameroon, he'd become a nobody. Football is a team sport. Mbappe can only succeed if other players pass him good balls and work together with him. Put Mbappe in a weak side, and he won't be able to do anything no matter his natural talents.

Didn’t know their politics was that much of a reason as to why they can’t perform in the World Cup Could you imagine being a player and expecting to go and play even tho you’re still owed months of your salary and have yet to receive your bonus?

He will do nothing

@@petesmart1983 he did give courage Morocco finished 4th

He's a bit corrupt against opposition, but he cares about his nation's team.

True

the biggest reason is quite simple. there aren't enough teams that have qualification spots. if there were more african teams, we would see african teams making it deeper more often, and more world cups would feed back into the footballing infrastructure -- i.e. more prize money, more lucrative sponsorships , it'll be more enticing for eligible players etc.

if 2/3 of your national team was born in europe and learned the skills there. then you can't call that a good representation of africa.

@@bandeano3870 same with france

But lost as usual.

being 4th in the world is not a loss@@ziz728

We can only wonder what would have happened in 2010 had Suarez not sacrificed himself for Uruguay

Ghana 🙂

Ghana dey go try shaa

As long as they don’t go as far as my country (Brasil)

@andre As long as you don't get in the way of Brasil, I am all for you.

Hi fellow Ugandan 🙋🏾‍♀️ 🇺🇬

@@GLO-RY Let's go! Project World Cup 2030!

Uganda is not good a football forget it. West africans and North africans have the talent in football its only them that qualify for the world Cup to rep Africa. East africa should stick to long distance running. Your not good

Unfortunately, africa would be one of the richest continents had it not been for european colonialism. When Europe left, they left us with no governments and they took our valuable resources such as our gold. France especially stole a lot of gold from a lot of african nations, and look where they are now with that gold money. Playing with a nearly entire african team, and being one of the richest footballing nations ever. If Europe hadn’t taken our way to make money, we could invest like Asia and be just as good as Europe is right now, while Europe would be no better than North America. Of course, some of it is our fault and some of it was beyond our control. For example, Cameroon rejecting Mbappe, and not being able to play for Algeria either, he had to go with France, which was a huge loss for both nations as he is one of the goats. Other players born in europe with african roots could’ve represented Africa, but didn’t want to. It’s unfortunate how poverty and bad decisions kept us from beating the likes of Europe. Although, someone we could be like is South America and i see no reason why we aren’t like them. Brazilian players from young ages suffered from poverty much like africans and were forced to play outside barefoot with homemade balls, they got good at controlling the ball with their bare feet and learned to do so with shoes. Africa is the same, in fact, it may be argued that football is played more by ordinary people and youth in Africa than in Brazil. Especially in my country and countries like it, morocco. We play 24/7. On the beach? forget swimming, perfect place to have a 6 on 6. Streets? Sidewalk? Alleyway? Even indoors, we play anywhere. Unfortunately much like you said, we don’t have an infrastructure in bringing in those same young players who are amazing at the game. Most africans are not rich, and play in unorganized teams with their friends, not in payed semi pro youth leagues. And those kids who play in the dirt sand and mud with their friends can easily be miles better than those playing in those youth leagues. If a couple scouts just for a little while went to the beach or a random field and watched groups of teens or kids play, they could identify talent early on. Most of the kids in Africa who are good at the sport like I said don’t play in a league at all. I only met a few people other than me who play in leagues who are good and they most certainly are not african leagues. So until africa tries a little to look outside of their leagues and go try to find talent in the streets and sand, they will forever be forced to rely on players who either get their only skill from europe and beg them to play for africa instead, or settle for mediocre players. Sorry for the essay, summary: Although poverty greatly affects how African football works, Africas scouting system still needs to look outside of the leagues and try to identify good talent that doesn’t play for an actual team in order to improve.

Did u watch the video

@@shalyfemusic he is right camavinga was born in angola but plays for france

This is kind of a weird request though, they have the right they’re just as French as the others why not? Just because they are of African descent doesn’t mean they aren’t really French.

@@RVforestgreenWell, no they aren’t french, but they have french nationality. There’s a difference between being french and having french nationality. Although I agree, they should still be able to play in the nation they were born, although the fact that those players don’t chose africa instead kinda sucks

@@Afrikkid exactly ? That’s what I meant by just as French.

Some people got them as their Dark Horse. I would've pick them too but Canada is my dark horse

@@kennymichaelalanya7134 Senegal will smoke Canada any day

@@kennymichaelalanya7134 this comment aged terribly lmfao

@@moleedaboi yup lol. Senegal might even beat England by the way they're playing plus a key player of theirs will be missing. I just didn't pick them since Sane wasn't playing . Canada played amazing even though they lost to Belgium and Croatia

There’s more talented players in Africa, they just don’t the opportunity like those in France do. The players in France a privilege they get the best training, government invest in them, the best academies. Africa talent is far more than France that’s just a little sample

Africa is a big country ...plenty of talent my question is the coaching ajd strategy im interested in this topic...they should at least be many on 1/4 finals..

they made it to semis, thats an huge achievement

@Justin Y. Nope Moroccans are Amazighs they just speak Arabic along with Tamazight languages and French, even the Moroccan constitution does not say that Morocco is an Arab country, where did you get that from?

@Justin Y. Sorry to hear that, my wife is Moroccan and I live happily with her, so your ex being Moroccan doesn't have nothing to do with why she broke up with you, however, if you are 17 yo why would you need to have a work? Shouldn't you be studying?

I am from Finland and half Morocco

@@iti7259 that’s cool

they will fail in the groupstages coming from a Belgian

@@ExoSkills Last time we remember Belgium lost to Morocco 4-1.

@@billyanderson5679 so you think england can lose to US and france to denmark...

🇰🇷 cheated! 🇰🇷 vs 🇮🇹

In fact, Korea should not have made it past Italy in that world cup even being as hosts.

However, in the same world cup, the USA was able to made into quarterfinals. If not for the handball cheat, the USA might have made it past Germany to reach the semifinals against Korea or even the finals against Brazil, although the USA won't win the world cup.

Let's see

af

Only Senegal, saying Ghana and Cameroon will pass is a 100% joke, have you seen their groups? Ghana is the WORST team in the world cup (source: FIFA Men's National Team Rankings) and how, JUST HOW, will CAMEROON pass in a group with BRAZIL, Switzerland and Serbia? Senegal is the ONLY African nation that ACTUALLY has a chance of going to the RO16, unless if Ecuador plays better than Senegal, and if France gets grouped (due to champions curse), Tunisia has chances too, but Morocco in a group with 2018 3rd place AND runner-up teams? No. Conclusion: Senegal and Tunisia are the ones with the highest chances of passing, but they will most likely get eliminated in the Round of 16, why? Because if Senegal passes, they will play either England, USA or Wales, and if Tunisia passed they will have to face either Germany or Spain.

@@lyou_peluche ghana improving cameroon is a good national team nigeria morocco having good squad algeria has a good squad but they need a foreign manager

@@lyou_peluche if you know you know fifa rankings is bs look at their squad and group they will probably beat south korea and uruguay

Thats because Europe s stronger than Africa. A lot of teams who cannpt qualify in Euro's would still beat African best teams.

@@gediminaskucinskas6952 that's not a fair play. Europe has more probality to win since it gets more teams

they get 5 while north America gets 3/4 so what are you saying right now

a

@@samplingmastersxlr8660 meant to say Conmebol

Yet the poorest performing continent over the past 3 world cups is Africa. Last world cup not one made it out the group stage. The best African teams should be the 5 that qualify but if they don't perform why add more?? Asia do alot better than African teams like this world cup with 3 Asian qualified and only 2 African qualified, same last world cup 2 Asian teams qualified.

Morocco is gonna stay in group stage what are u talking about

@@jre.bored0153 yeah about that..

@@JC2007. I'm dumb ill admit

Ghana got three points and cameroon 4

@@Adwoa_Agyei Yes

Moroccan coach Regueragui said We represent Africa and we represent the Arab world. And he said Africa first.

France 1998 and 2018

Yes but also some of the players are born in those colonizer countries but are of African descent lol.

Bad should’ve finished 3rd 😂

Guess where all those players where born and raised at ‘FRANCE’ it obviously France has the best training academies idk how

@@fivefour5514 not really some yes but not all and yes france has amazing training academies ..

Jackie Chan once said that one day an Asian country will become world champion

And he saw it in 2018 😂😂

if the referee wasnt from argentina we wouldve won

​@@brincadeirasdogu9750not really, but we wouldn't really know for sure

Even if Morocco could not Argentina from playing Portugal, France would.

@@jimmyyue238 true France is the best African team 😂😂

Come on Morocco 🇲🇦

Morocco did it finally 👏

Morroco was now in the semifinals

@@I-do-random_stuff so?

If it was the best ever african team, why didn't it even qualify for the world cup?

Then you compare to S. America with 85 chances (almost double the rest) and an impressive record of 9 Wins, 5 Additional Finals and 8 Semis and obv. Europe with 245 chances (so can't compare) 12 Wins, 16 Finals, and another 32 Semis even though Europe is getting an unfair advantage in the amount of teams it sends they obviously are better at getting to the final stages percentage wise

Australia would dominate africa, ok chill bro.

@@tendatonda1634 not necessarily dominate but they would be amongst the most successful teams on the continent

@@Sports-xo7wy well we will see this claim of yours since tunisia will eventually face australia.

France Morocco two African teams 😂

I seawr I'm Egyptian

AUBAMAYENG HAS DONE WHAT IN BIG STAGES. NO UCL NO LEAGUE TITLES AND ONLY FAMOUS FOR WEARING CASUAL CLOTHES AT AFCON AWARDS.. AUBAMAYENG DOESNT REPRESENT AFRICA..HE ONLY JOINED AFRICA FOR MORE GAME TIME CAUSE FRANCE IS FULL
