African Football Confederation (CAF) President Ahmad Ahmad described the record of African participation in the Russia-2018 (14 June-15 July) World Cup, marked by a early elimination of the five representatives.
"Our five representatives scored 15 goals in only 15 games and one goal against their side and conceded a whopping 26 goals. Of the 15 games, the five Africans have won three games, made two draws and lost 10 times. This is a lean and worrying record. None managed to pass the second round, "said Ahmad at a conference to evaluate the participation of African teams in the World Cup, organized by CAF.
" Yet African players garnish the most prestigious clubs of the earth. Yet our continent is perceived as a universal reservoir of talent. Yet we have an audience that the whole earth envies us. What exactly is missing from our representatives to compete with ardor, talent and efficiency with the best in the world?
Are these malfunctions in the preparation? Management or management of the workforce? ", Asked the first person in charge of the African instance.
With 10 teams, the Europeans scored 102 goals and conceded 77 at the World Cup-2018. They scored 35 wins, 2 draws and 21 losses. This assessment puts them out of reach of all other continents, says the successor of Issa Hayatou who urged the African football family to change things and to work more.
"We must change things. On our continent the fervor of football is unique. She embodies a devouring passion. It gives birth to moments of trance, of sublimation but the essential, the performances and
the titles are not at the rendezvous today. Our football must assert itself on the world stage with real results. And why not exploits. It must reflect both nobility and talent but above all strong and convincing results, "he said.
" For all this, there is only one recipe: a set to work immediate, I repeat, and a rational development from the grassroots to the high level. In this device of evolution, the commitment of the CAF will be total, without any restraint and I assure you, I will take care personally with the strong feeling that we can succeed all
together ", has-it- he concluded.
