THE SAD STORY OF ZAIRE AT THE 1974 WORLD CUP!!!
This attitude towards African football was a permanent perception throughout the 1970s. African teams, in fact, had boycotted the 1966 World Cup, demanding a permanent spot, finally granted in 1970, with Morocco being the beneficiaries.Despite a decent showing from Morocco, African football was seen as entirely inferior to the European and South American level throughout the 70s.Realistically, Europe’s loss of centrality on the world stage skewed sports commentators’ perceptions of these nations.Instead of recognizing the amazing 8-year rise of a country that was in utter turmoil, European press focused on the changing qualification supposedly devaluing the World Cup.Considering the centuries of Europeans pillaging African resources, football wasn’t exactly the primary concern of most countries of the motherland. The focus should have been on the team being the first sub-Saharan nation to play on the world stage. Nevertheless, Zaire had made it to World Cup.

    THE ANALYSER SOUNDS A SOUTH AFRICAN AND THAT IS WHY ZAMBIAN LEGENDS KALUSHA BWALYA AND GODFREY CHATALU ARE MISSING. HOW CAN YOU MENTION THE AVERAGE KHUMALO AND MACCARTHY WITHOUT MENTIONING KALUSHA BWALYA THE GREAT. ALSO , THERE ARE ONLY 2 AFRICAN PLAYERS WHO ACHIEVED WHAT NO OTHER AFRICAN PLAYER COULD AFFORD : KINNAH PHIRI OF MALAWI AND GODFREY CHATALU OF ZAMBIA. THEY SCORED 79 AND 71 INTERNATIONAL GOALS RESPECTIVELY AND INSTEAD OF MENTIONING THEM , U ARE MENTIONING AVERAGE SOUTH AFRICAN PLAYERS. ANYWAY , THAT IS A SOUTH AFRICAN OPINION FROM SOUTH AFRICA POINT OF VIEW. WHAT I KNOW , EVEN THE LOW LEVEL ZAMBIAN PLAYERS LIKE ALEX CHOLA , CHARLES MUSONDA , CHRISTOPHER KATONGO AND COLLINS MBESUMA WERE BY FAR BETTER THAN ALL THE SOUTH AFRICANS YOU MENTIONED AND THE MANY AVERAGE PLAYERS YOU DREW FROM ACROSS THE CONTINENT. ANYWAY THAT IS A SOUTH AFRICAN OPINION BASED ON APARTHEID AND WE CAN'T RESPECT IT. WE CAN ONLY RESPECT FIFA AND CAF RECORDS. FIND OUT THE POSITION OF GODFREY CHATALU AND KINNAH PHIRI IN AFRICAN AND WORLD HISTORY BECAUSE IF YOU DO , YOU WILL BE ASHAMED OF THREE QUARTERS YOU MENTIONED.(The Football Historian from Malawi).
