Harambee Stars coach Benni McCarthy has explained one key thing North African nations like Morocco and Egypt get right to stay ahead of other nations like South Africa and Nigeria in the battle for football supremacy.

Bolt is the only sprinter in history to win both the 100m and 200m Olympic titles at three consecutive Games—Beijing 2008, London 2012, and Rio 2016—a feat that solidified his dominance on the global stage.
He also contributed to Jamaica’s historic performance in the 4x100m relay, helping set a world record time of 36.84 seconds at the 2012 London Olympics.
Though one of his eight Olympic gold medals was later rescinded due to a teammate’s doping violation, Bolt remains one of the most decorated sprinters in history, with seven official Olympic golds to his name.
His legacy extends beyond the track, inspiring millions around the world with his unmatched speed, magnetic charisma, and commitment to excellence.
