The performance of the underrated teams speaks to the improvement of the game on the continent.For quality,I would say that African football is markedly different from European football.It is more of physical play and a show of stamina.

Yes the smaller teams raised their standard. I agree also that the African game is more physical than technical. And the pitches? I cant compare them with those in Europe because we all know how things are run here.

Lol, you don't compare ooo,we can only contrast because they can't come close.But if you compare the pitches with other African pitches, the Ivorians can pass

Yes, its not good to compare. The gap is wide. The Ivorian pitch is great.

To me the pitches are good but the needs to be a lot of improvement on the technicalities of most of the teams.If this teams were to feature at a world cup, physical football will not take them far.

Yes, the are mostly technically deficient. Intelligence is needed to win global games like a world cup. I think there should be a way to high coaches that are good technically for the national teams.

That is if the different African FA's will allow reasoning to prevail over corruption, nepotism and tribalism .

That is it. They want to force players on coaches and many other things that have stopped the growth of African football

Only serious countries do well in Africa but the moment that stops,they flop.

That is it. We hope things improve with time
