It would take 22 years and the creation of the Africa Cup of Nations before a World Cup slot was guaranteed to Africa alone. This is the story of how Africa had to fight the system for its place at the World Cup. This is the fifteenth in a series, written by Jonathan Wilson, exploring the entire history of football. Illustrated by Philippe Fenner.
