Nigeria’s senior national team has dropped in the latest Fifa world ranking released on Thursday afternoon despite winning their two games in the month under review.
The African Champions were adjudged the 35thbest football playing team in the world according the ranking released earlier in August.
This fall on the world football log however, was good enough as they moved up to the fourth place in with the Eagles of Mali taking up their previous fifth position after dropping six places downwards.
Meanwhile Cote d’Ivoire remain at the summit of African football with 902 points which put them in the 19thposition in the world while Ghana retain their 24thspot in the world and second in Africa. Algeria took the third spot on the continent after amassing 762 points which places them in the 28thspot in the world.
However, the biggest mover by rank is the Gambian national team that moved 27 places on Fifa ranking.
Spain, Argentina and Germany hold the first, second and third spots in the world respectively as Fifa Confederations Cup champions Brazil move to the eight position in the world

I just don't understand FIFA with this their ranking, must we drop point each time we win a game? Abi to win a game don become crime where FIFA dey?
Biko, I need someone to clear me on this cause I'm lost, honestly.

Something is really not right here. Why do we keep dropping points even after winning our matches! The most surprising was the one after the nations cup. Well, long as we keep winning all our matches, I care-less about their nonsense rankings..
