I'd have to think an African country would do it first, especially when the tournament goes to 48 teams

African qualifying is so ludicrously punishing. Enter more African teams and I'd fancy one of them to do it

Even ten years ago I'd have agreed with you, but there are only so many times you can see a potentially great side destroy itself (or be destroyed by the actions of others) before you begin to lose all hope.

Just look at that Ghana side of 2014 - they were better than the 2010 side that got robbed by Suarez et al, they pushed Germany and the Portugese all the way and yet went home bottom of their group with their two best players threatened with life bans and having almost gone on strike for money they were owed and which someone else had tried to filch.
