The World Cup of Peoples and Cultures... in the face of the World Cup of money
Samuel Eto'o (belongs to the new generation of African managers), who is also the legend of Cameroonian football throughout the ages, insisted in a television program to bring two African teams to the final round of the World Cup, namely the Moroccan national team and his country's Cameroon national team, and he gave the dream of winning the World Cup to his country .
A win that Ito gave to his country with his heart after he failed to do so with his feet. The man showed unmistakable African enthusiasm, an enthusiasm that reminded us of the enthusiasm of hearing resounding African names in World Cup stadiums throughout the ages. What I am interested in clarifying here is that the Africans have won everything from time to time, and I especially mention here the World Cup, which the Africans won as individuals, waiting to win it as groups, (teams), but as individuals, how?
This question prompts us to research the history of winning the world title, and how the Africans contributed to making the football glories that were written with the ink of pride and pride, which is what Pele did with the Brazil national team, and Boateng with the German national team. Are these not Africans? Yes they are. But the cruelty of the slave traders deprived Africa of Pele's talent when they forcibly emigrated his family to coffee plantations and other imperialist farms in this South American country with the well-known ethnographic specificity, which is of a different nature from the African ethnicity and its cultural and genetic specifics…. It is not possible today for anyone to come and convince me that Pele is not African and that he is one of the people of the Amazon…. What is said about Pele can be true of Ghanaian Boateng, who grew up in exile and won the World Cup with the German national team, after his family emigrated to Europe in search of new horizons for social advancement.
The former - but at the expense of the wasted dream of Africans, and they were not satisfied with this only, as they worked to enact naturalization laws that give the right to any player, whatever his nationality, to represent the country of residence, and this is what makes us once again facing a strange phenomenon, and it is related to the borders of homelands culturally and the fate of the culture of belonging … Imagine with me two players, two brothers, eating breakfast at one table in the morning, in front of the eyes of their parents, and their other brothers, and when they go out to training, they do so at the same time …. But when wearing the jersey, this one wears a German and the other a Ghanaian? What is it?!! This is what naturalization has earned us….
Every scheme has lapses and shortcomings. Immigration enabled peoples to meet, harmonize, and get to know each other. It also enabled generations of Africans to develop their equipment and work to advance in the ranks of bicycles. It is the world that will enable Africans to be crowned collectively (teams) with the World Cup title, provided that the local federations have a clear plan in the field of benefiting from the energies of the children of immigrants, and it is on every policy that operates today in many African countries, especially Morocco, and we will see it tomorrow In Cameroon, Senegal, Ghana, Nigeria, Côte d'Ivoire and others.
In sum, many African peoples were individually crowned the World Cup, including the Amazighs with the legend Zidane, the Kurds with Mesut Ozil, Ghana with Boateng, and the majority of West African nationalities with France.. And before them, all of Africa was crowned with Pele, but it seems to me that France will be again One of the biggest losers if the Africans succeed in thwarting football naturalization ….
