Nigeria drop to 39th in FIFA ranking

 Nigeria’s Super Eagles have dropped again by one spot in the FIFA World Ranking to place world 39th in the July ranking



In the ranking table by the world football governing body, the Nigerian team still maintained the 1,498.93 it had in June.


Nigeria suffered a massive drop in the June ranking from 30th to 38th after lacklustre performances in the World Cup Qualifying matches.


The drop on the global stage in July however did not affect the team’s position on the continental stage as the 5th behind Morocco, Senegal, Egypt and Cote d ‘Ivoire.


On the global scene, three continental competitions and a plethora of international friendlies have been served up in June and July, with no fewer than 125 matches having been contested across the globe.
