A very tiresome article talking about a successful football academy In Ivory coast.
"Africans are strong, physically, naturally strong and quick. Obviously there is a lot of talent in this country".
Would we ever see and article about (for instance) Barcelonas successful academy in terms of how intelligent/strong/skillfull European players are?!

No mention is made of the lack of stamina over the course of the game and poor organizational play of the typical African team. As a young man in the 90's long before I came across Caste Football I remember Russia beating a very hyped Cameroon team in the World Cup 5-0 and how much encouragement I got from seeing that because at that time I mostly believed in the myth of black athletic supremacy.
the lack of stamina they don't mention because they see blacks winning the marathon and they don't think about the differences between west and east africans.
In holland they also always say when they talk about the africans as strong and fast.I agree on them being fast on average(top speed).
but most african don't know what is their strength and often do a accelaration sprint against a whitey in spite of a sprint against a euroepan from a running position which is their only advantage on average over a white player but even that is not alwaysa true.
I did remember that i was devender, i was normally attacker but in this match not.I have to say my opponent was a fast black, but every time he did try to beat me from a not running or nearly non running position and if is something my strength then it is my acceleration haha.he tryed and tryed didn't work, only the first couple of meters he had a reaction time advantage but 10 meters later he was beated.I didn't want to tell him he had to pass the ball to a teammate( they often not like), run ,ask the ball back and try to beat me from a running position and try to beat me with his top speed.
i was a good player but from a moment in 2008 in changed, since then my legs go tired patheticly fast, and can't play annymore, i wonder what i would have played know without it, i think high pro leaugue which make me more bitter, it happened when i just did begin to get really good others said.
I never had really problems with the blacks but i don't like that blacks are seen as the most athletic when they are not for a fact.
But i didnt like to be a striker with blacks next to me because they often don't pass the ball when needed ,try to hard to make their own goal,outside caste football people will say it is stereotyping but i just noticed.
