in this year's World Cup I personally do not have any expectation from African countries, this is not the right time for Africa countries because many of the African countries that are familiar to my hearing did not go to the World Cup. I don't know many of them except for Cameroon and Ghana.
The one African country that would have had good chances of going far in the World Cup is Senegal because they are the champions of Africa but since their star man is no longer with them I don't know how far they can go
senegal is not the only good team in africa, tunisia and morocco play very well and could even perform well but they have very strong opponents in their group too, that's why you shouldn't expect anything big from africa teams and fifa continues being unfair to Africa when it puts only 5 teams from the African continent even knowing that the African continent has many countries, I don't know what those damn fifa think when they only put 5 teams from Africa for the world cup, but the fact is that also in africa due to corruption the championships are weak and even deficient, for an african player to be able to play well he needs to go to play in europe
Ghana players are better than the way they used to play. Many people don't have confidence in Ghana because of their record of football in the past. Ghana was underrated in the AFCON tournament, Ghana surprised many people for the fact that they were able to qualify in the AFCON game. This time in the FIFA World Cup game Ghana might break another record again.
Ghana has always been a very strong team, when Mourinho was coach of Chelsea there were many good players from Ghana playing for Chelsea, the problem is that in Africa the teams are weak, the championships are very poor in all areas, the players win bad, this is big corruption and african governments do not take soccer seriously, as a result african players are not competitive at the european level, only the few african players that manage to play in europe teams can compete with europeans, but a there are 11 players in the team and they all need to be good players to have good results, it won't do any good to have 4 African players playing in europe in a team of 11 players, they didn't get far. senegal even if they had mane they would be eliminated soon
