This is good news.
The first time in a very long while we are ranked above of cameroun.
Being the highest ranked team is sweet.

but for how long?

Though we dont have any big competition ahead, we can remain in the top 20 if we play grade a friendly matches.

Sweet, meaningless but sweet, now all we need is for NFA to keep Egu in place.

@ Akolawole, your reference to our "success" in Egypt confounds me. Bronze for Nigeria with all the fire power we have is no success as far as I'm concerned.

Do you believe you worked hard enough or put in enough time to have success?
