Nigeria made a relative improvement in the post-World Cup Fifa rankings after making their third second round appearance in Brazil.The Super Eagles, who finished runners-up of their group behind losing-finalists Argentina, moved up ten places to 34th in the ratings released on July 14.

Four-time World champions Germany lead the standings for the first time in around 20 years, after clinching the 2014 tournament.

Runners-up Argentina trailed in second followed by the Netherlands, who finished third-place in the just-concluded football showpiece.

Cameroon, are the only African representatives in Brazil who failed to make the top 50, with Algeria retaining their first position in the Caf zone.

Despite the ‘Dessert Foxes’ progress to the knock-out stage for the first time in as many appearances, they dropped two places to 24th.

Cote d’Ivoire, who again ended a disappointing campaign in the South American nation, remain second in Africa, 25th in the world.

Egypt, 36th, (unchanged) and Ghana, 38th, (down one place) are fourth and fifth in Africa.
