African nations have never won the FIFA World Cup, the most prestigious international football tournament. The best performances have come from Cameroon and Ghana, who have both made it to the quarter-finals. South Africa also hosted the tournament in 2010, but they were eliminated at the group stage. Morocco, Tunisia, and Senegal have all made it to the Round of 16. It is unlikely that an African nation will win the tournament in the near future, but the increasing strength of African football should not be underestimated.
