Morocco have shown that African teams can compete deep into major tournaments.

Egypt deserved a lot of respect for the way they challenged Argentina.

European and South American teams must now prepare seriously for every African opponent.

African teams are no longer satisfied with simply participating.

Egypt may have lost, but their performance sent a strong message.

I would not say the gap is completely closed, but it is closer than ever.

The next step is for an African nation to reach the final and win it.

After these performances, nobody should call an African victory an upset anymore.

I think it’s a stretch to say the gap has completely closed when African teams still struggle with the same old issue: turning strong performances into actual results when it really counts. Morocco is fun to watch but they haven’t beaten a top 5 side yet this tournament.

I don't think Morocco really performed well against France. There was something missing in the mid field
