Why can’t Africa’s footballing giants succeed at an international level?
The recent performance of nations like Ghana, Nigeria, Egypt and South Africa has left much to be desired
Alan Kasujja is in conversation with former Leeds United captain Lucas Radebe and popular African commentator Christophe Bongo.
He’s trying to understand why a country like South Africa, for example, with world class stadiums and football academies, finds it difficult to dominate the Africa Cup of Nations.
But it’s not the only one.
Egypt, Ghana and Nigeria haven’t been doing well either in recent years, despite churning out great players for global teams.
This conversation comes as qualifiers for the 2024 Africa Cup of Nations are set to continue in the coming weeks.
