Abeg make una free FIFA small. The ranking is based on the amounts of points raked from friendly and competitive matches we played... Remember we drew two, lost two and won only one of our last five matches, that is the reason for our drop...

Re: Nigeria Drops Four Point In FIFA Rankings by Afam4eva(m): 4:40pm On Jul 04, 2013
FIFA needs to review their algorithm for ranking countries. I see no reason why Nigeria shouldn't be the number one team in Africa despite going to the confed cup unbeaten. When was the last time we were beaten by an African team?

So you think your idea makes much more sense than the one an organisation such as FIFA must have set down in rating teams? You suppose to ask why and how is it done and not you jumping to such conclusion.
This is why it is the way it is;
[b]FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking Procedure
How are points calculated in
the FIFA/Coca-Cola World
Ranking?
The basic logic of these calculations is simple: any
team that does well in world football wins points
which enable it to climb the world ranking.
A team’s total number of points over a four-year
period is determined by adding:
· the average number of points gained from
matches during the past 12 months;
and
· the average number of points gained from
matches older than 12 months (depreciates yearly).
Calculation of points for a single match
The number of points that can be won in a match
depends on the following factors:
• Was the match won or drawn? (M)
• How important was the match (ranging from a
friendly match to a FIFA World Cup™ match)? (I)
• How strong was the opposing team in terms of
ranking position and the confederation to which they
belong? (T and C)
These factors are brought together in the following
formula to ascertain the total number of points (P).
P = M x I x T x C
The following criteria apply to the calculation of
points:
M: Points for match result
Teams gain 3 points for a victory, 1 point for a draw
and 0 points for a defeat. In a penalty shoot-out, the
winning team gains 2 points and the losing team
gains 1 point.
I: Importance of match
Friendly match (including small
competitions): I = 1.0
FIFA World Cup™ qualifier or confederation-level
qualifier: I = 2.5
Confederation-level final competition or FIFA
Confederations Cup: I = 3.0
FIFA World Cup™ final
competition: I
= 4.0
T: Strength of opposing team
The strength of the opponents is based on the
formula: 200 – the ranking position of the opponents
As an exception to this formula, the team at the top
of the ranking is always assigned the value 200 and
the teams ranked 150th and below are assigned a
minimum value of 50. The ranking position is taken
from the opponents’ ranking in the most recently
published FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking.
C: Strength of confederation
When calculating matches between teams from
different confederations, the mean value of the
confederations to which the two competing teams
belong is used. The strength of a confederation is
calculated on the basis of the number of victories by
that confederation at the last three FIFA World Cup™
competitions (see following page). Their values are
as follows:
UEFA/CONMEBOL 1.00
CONCACAF 0.88
AFC/CAF 0.86 OFC
0.85 [/b]
