Ranked ahead of Erling Haaland's Norway...

This kind of boastful and arrogant style of sports journalism is what I don't like.

Acknowledge and appreciate your accomplishments without putting others down.

Exactly my thoughts.

Are you done or you have anything to add?

That's really exciting

themanderon:
What are the modalities for these rankings please?

It's a point based ranking system.

You get points for game won, ranking of the opposition and tournament participation also determine how points get allocated

E.g
You u gain more points beating teams ranked above you

You get more points in tournament wins than friendlies wins

FIFA Ranking: Nigeria ahead of Ivory Coast, Haaland’s Norway after biggest move in 11 years



Nigeria has moved 14 places in the latest FIFA Ranking, sitting well ahead of AFCON champions Cote d'Ivoire, and Erling Haaland's Norway.

Nigeria’s Super Eagles are flying high after being officially ranked as the third-best team in Africa in the recently released FIFA World Ranking.





Nigeria soars in FIFA Ranking
According to the latest release by FIFA, the Super Eagles are now ranked 28th in the world following the run in Cote d’Ivoire.

Nigeria finished runners-up after a painful 2-1 defeat to host nation Cote d’Ivoire in a widely watched final last Sunday.


But despite the heartbreak, the Jose Peseiro-led young side earned plenty of admirers as they soared through the tournament before missing out narrowly on a fourth title.

Nigeria’s move from 42nd in the world to 28th is the highest move for the Super Eagles in 11 years, with the team matching the May 9, 2013 position.



The Super Eagles are now ranked behind Morocco, who moved one spot to 12th and Senegal, who are ranked 17th after moving three places.

Elsewhere on the ranking
Nigeria is now ahead of Erling Haaland’s Norway, ranked 46th in the world, and African champions, Cote d’Ivoire, who moved 10 places to 39th.

So Ghana is not even in the top 60 in the world with all their mouth?

MasterTeeUSA:
Morocco and Senegal are ahead of us...dang

Na so
But most importantly
We are ahead of Ghana and South Africa

Nobody is talking about Ghana in African football again

The eagles I watch at the Nation's Cup isn't better than the Ivorians team.

Y'all need to see the full speed wey our jollof rice brethren take run from this group chat

The Ghana Quack Stars are busy cleaning their husband’s compound … that is Mr. Cape Verde

Before nko Ivory won does not mean they played better football although I don't care about ranking nonsense same as in cricket but the truth is Ivory Coast played no football in this last tournament they are just lucky and their yeye superstition that mistakenly favoured them that is all.

To be honest, the Elephants of Ivory Coast played better than the Super Eagles at the finals. Even the stats during and after the game showed it. Remember the stats are electronically generated via AI.

I felt really bad when the former Bafana Bafana player in the studio was analysing the match after the game and he said "the Eagles played poorly or rather, the Elephants made them look like tbey played poorly ".

Whoever watch Nigeria playing against other African teams, you'll notice the balance, ball control, smooth passing and super attacking. Issue is that Africans are strong and so much energy is needed. I want to see where south Africa, Ghana and Cameroon is ranked
