well in 2026 CONMEBOL will have 6  slots  so they will be fine, while in africa we continue to be discriminated  and humiliated as if in africa they are only participating because as the name says: " world cup " so all continents need to be represented. it makes no sense that:

the European continent has 16  slots

entire American continent (South America, North America, Central America and the Caribbean) have 12  slots

Asia has 8  slots seats

but Africa, which is a very big continent, only has 9  slots

FIFA should have placed at least 12  slots for Africa, but in the end these changes will only be seen in 2026, there are still many years to go

In terms of population, Asia is much greater than Africa (you can add in Australia as well, since they are now a part of the AFC). You should be happy that CAF is being given more slots when compared to the AFC, although the population is smaller. The new qualification system is still unfair to teams such as Bolivia and Venezuela in the CONMEBOL, who have hardly any chance of qualifying for the world cup. On the other hand, a lot of weak teams from both Asia and Africa are going to qualify for the main tournament. But I am not going to complain much about it. After all, we need representation from all the continents.
