No, five African teams failed to make it to second round because we don't have strong football structures.

We don't have enough coaches, enough facilities, good methods of training our youth players, etc.

That is why Cameroon, Senegal and Ghana have not repeated their quarter final showing since. And why Nigeria won't get to the quarter finals...till we fix the way we run football in this country. And till we properly invest in facilities and training.

See Belgium...they are where they are today because in 2002..their FA changed the way they train their young and old players. And invested in training of coaches.

FIFA has been fair to us. Ever since Havelange came into office. Things like World Youth Champoinships, U17, Goal project were gifts to African nations to develop their football. Gifts we spoilt with overaged and corruption.

That symbol is blood deep. It is the biggest slap to give to genocidal Serbia. Serbia during the time of Yugoslavia massacred the Albanians in a genocide orchestrated to wipe out the Albanians,especially around the Kosovo region. Shaqiri and Xhaka happen to be descendants of those Albanians killed in Kosovo. The double headed eagle sign is a symbol of Albanian nationalism. They made the sign to the Serbian supporters in the stands to rub it in.

Only people that understand and like history/international politics would find the topic interesting. Serbs caused the Balkan war, their hatred for Muslims and other ethnic groups in the formal Yugoslavian region caused this celeberation. Till today some Bosnians, Albanians and Serbs that were friends to non-Serbs can't enter Serbia. Congrats to Shaqiri and Xhaka for representing the origin of their ancestors.

No wonder Serbian FA keep protesting against the recognition of Kosovo football federation by FIFA. Kosovo FA has only partial recognition by FIFA.

The Serbians are the most genocidal people of Europe. They are the equivalent of the Fulani herdsmen here. They massacred thousands of ethnic Albanians. During the Bosnian war, they went to Srebenica in 1995, handed out chocolates to kids int the afternoon, then rounded up all the boys and men of that village, slaughtered 6,000 of them and buried them in mass graves. Those guys are animals.

Watch this video of how the entire stadium attacked the Albanian team that went to Serbia to play what was supposed to be a friendly match.

Just crazy! Listen to the genocidal chants of the 100% Serbian crowd. I just pray Nigeria never gets to this level.

As a kid, the name Slobodan Milosevic was always in the news for the wrong reasons. Was he the one responsible for the genocide? Was it Kosovo, or am I confusing it with the conflict in Bosnia back then? We should stop acting like Biafra is an isolated case. All over the world, there is a struggle for self-determination.

FRAUD is FIFA and FIFA is FRAUD. AFRICA will go along way IF and only FIFA and its REFEREES adhere strictly to the rules of the game. (Fair Play )Watch Morocco's last group game penalty and Nigeria's game against Argentina supposedly penalty. God bless.

Milosevic was the Serbian President. He played a big part in the genocides carried out during the Yugoslav wars. The Bosnian massacre was headed by Mladic,a Serbian officer. Targeted at Bosniaks. It's instructive to note the conflict had/has a ethnoreligious undertone and precedes Milosevic.

Senegal own weak me like WTF is fair play? As if the referees were fair to African teams
Fair play is the season why Portugal finished behind Spain.
Maybe if you spent 30mins going through the rules of the game, you wouldn't be this confused.

Iran's penalty was a different case.
An Iranian headed the ball towards portugals goal before it touched cedric's hand.
In our case, The ball came off Rojo head(going away from goal) to touch his arm.
The fact that the ball came off another part of his body to touch his arm(at a time he couldn't control the movement of his arm) means it's not a foul.
It's the same thing as the ball coming off the leg of a falling player to touch the hand he used in supporting himself to the ground.
P.S you really need to read the rules you asking them to adhere to.

spain has more goals than portugal, 6 to portugal's 5.....it is after every parameter is exhausted that the fair play rule would be used.

Spain scored 6 and conceded 5 while Portugal scored 5 and conceded 4, so they both had a goal difference of +1(tied)

yes, after goal difference is checked and it is the same, then goals scored/ for is used, then goal against then the last alternative fair play, football rules have hierarchy
