FIFA ranking: Super Eagles drop to 13th in Africa

World’s football governing body, FIFA has released its rankings for the month of October, and the Super Eagles of Nigeria have dropped five spots on the rankings and are now 63rd in the world.

The team also dropped out of the top 10 to now occupy the 13th position in Africa, coming after Cape Verde and Central African Republic.

Elephants of Cote’ d Ivoire remain the highest ranked African team on the list; they occupy the 16th position in the world and number one on the continent.

Algeria, Mali, Ghana and Egypt follow in that order, making it up the top five, while African champions, Zambia are in sixth position and are 41 in the world.

Tunisia, Gabon, Central African Republic and Cape Verde are the other countries that are in the top 10 in the continent.

FIFA ranking has always been rubbish but it has never been this bad.

What was Nigeria's position before everyone wanted Siasia out?
Re: FIFA Ranking: Super Eagles Drop To 13th In Africa by CrazyMan(m): 12:15pm On Oct 04, 2012
As usual, let's put the blame on Papa Jona - a typical Nigerian style adopted by we Nigerians to comfort ourselves from failure caused by our nonchalant attitude and incompetence. sad

I shall begin...Well done Papa Jona...you've succeeded in ruining our national team just also. sad

Next... sad

Re: FIFA Ranking: Super Eagles Drop To 13th In Africa by Todaynatoday: 12:25pm On Oct 04, 2012
Really, this is coming as no surprise to me. Nigerian football has been on a downward spiral since 2006 world cup. We need to go back to the drawing board.

Am not concern at all, if they like, they should rank them 170 in world, so far it does not affect EPL.

NFF should do the right thing at the right time and sack all these mallam out of our football house and everyone that is a plus to neccesity should be show the exit door, period!
Re: FIFA Ranking: Super Eagles Drop To 13th In Africa by BabaO2: 12:46pm On Oct 04, 2012
It is a fair standing considering who is the coach. Togo and Mali were far behind 63 when he was managing them.
Re: FIFA Ranking: Super Eagles Drop To 13th In Africa by dhanmccoy: 12:46pm On Oct 04, 2012
This list used to mean something to me. Doesn't now. I just don't get their criteria. They even ranked England 3rd in the world after the Euros. Nonsense.
