Thats the reason they do well.. they have "unknowns" who happen to be good players, but people dont really rate them because they dont know the players too tuffIts not only thatFrom what have notcied all african teams bar the north play the same style of football.. tactically I dont think they are great.. Theres still alot to learn about the game.. The game as advanced and egypt seem to be th only team who understand this.. These southern teams are still playing that Old school style of play and it aint gonna get them far.. Its good to see soo many african players dominating in europe as individuals but tactically as a team alot needs to be done. I cant even see any of those teams been a threat in the World cup 2010 IMHO.. I hope things have changed by then.Egypt understands the formular to win this competition and as long as the southern teams keep play the same. Egypt will have this competition on lock... It will be suprised if they didnt go and win the competiton nowI don't agree.The big African teams (the better ones) do have good tactics.It's just that Egypt have their own style of play that relies on their strengths as a team.The match today reminded me alot of the Porto Vs. Man United game a while back.Porto defended well the whole game, didn't give United sniff and when their chances came they put them away.Thats not to say Man United weren't on the money tactically its just that Porto's style of play won them the game.Plus all the time wasting here and there plays mind games on the opposition which isn't a good thing.CorrectThey play like a cluband BTW to whoever said itMido and Ghanly arent all that anymore
