2026 World Cup Day 13: South Africa Stuns Nigerian Fans as Morocco Breaks African Win Record

2026 World Cup Day 13: South Africa Stuns Nigerian Fans as Morocco Breaks African Win Record

Day 13 of the 2026 World Cup delivered shock results in Groups A, B, and C. South Africa picked up four points to reach the round of 32, denying many Nigerians their hoped-for upset. Mexico also sealed a perfect group stage with a 3-0 win over the Czech Republic. In Group B, Switzerland edged Canada 2-1 to claim top spot, while Bosnia and Herzegovina secured a 3-1 victory over Qatar and advanced as one of the best third-place teams. Group C saw Brazil defeat Scotland 3-0 thanks to a Vinicius Jr brace and a Matheus Cunha strike. Morocco then set a new African mark by beating Haiti 4-2 for their seventh World Cup win, surpassing Nigeria’s long-standing record. Knockout-round draws will follow as these teams prepare for the next stage.

What do you think went wrong for Nigeria against South Africa after that close game? Could their tactics have backfired?

I agree, their approach looked too predictable and maybe left them exposed at the back.

Morocco breaking African win record in the group stage sounds impressive, but does this really prove they're stronger than traditional powerhouses?

I'm not convinced South Africa's performance was a complete surprise. They've shown steady improvement and might have been underrated coming into this tournament.

If Nigeria wants to advance, their coaching staff should analyze South Africa's midfield control and improve transition play before the knockout stages begin.
