For example,in this "world" cup, the africain teams played very well but I feel that the refrees and the organizers did their best that any Africa nation could reach even the semi- finals.It's really unfair because I don't understand why(ex: the 3 goals of Brazil which were offside were accepted by the refrees as if it was normal.The refrees were too strict to the Africain teams(more opportunities were given against the africain teams. I think this is not a "world"cup but rather a cup of two continents(two continent=Europe and south America)

Racism has nothing to do with it.
If it was racism, then Brazil would alos be a victim,
since most of its players are non-white.
Teams like France and Saudi Arabia also have many
black players.
If European teams were favored over non-European
teams, then mayeb you'd have a point. But to say that
referees favor both European AND South American
teams, and yet are "racist" makes no sense.
Further, in the last couple, nations like Japan, Korea
abd Turkey did very well. All non-European and non-S.
American.
The fact is, Ghana lost because they can't shoot straight,
not because of referee racism.
Ivory Coast and Togo did well, but lack experience to
finish their plays.
Tunisia (which is not black, incidentally, thus again going
agaisnt your point) has the msot experience of the
African teams, and is one of the top African teams in
African continental play, but they don't seem to do too
well in World Cup play.

Another one with a persecution complex. And you don't know much about football, if you think that African teams played very well. The object of the game is to score goals, not just fancy moves and hit anything that moves.

perhaps if people like you stop seeing racism everywhere you look and stopped playing the race card then we would all get on a lot better.
