Super Eagles Move Up One Spot In Fifa Rankings by heshomoney(m): 2:07am On Mar 10, 2011
A low quality make-shift friendly match with West African neighbours, Sierra-Leone counted for so little as the Super Eagles moved just a step up in the latest rankings released yesterday by world football governing body, FIFA.

The Super Eagles now occupy the 39th spot in the world rankings.

Though the Eagles won the friendly against the Leone Stars 2-1, they still remain the fourth best team in the African continent behind the likes of Ghana, Cote d'Ivoire and Egypt.

Ghana dropped one spot to become 16th in the world, but are still the highest ranked African team with Cote D' Ivoire as Africa's second best team; 25th in the world. Current African champions, Egypt are rated third in Africa while occupying the 35th spot in the world.

Minor changes

According to FIFA, a total of 55 friendly matches were taken into account for the March edition of the world rankings.
