Super Eagles drops three places close to bottom in latest FIFA ranking

Jose Peseiro’s side also dropped from fourth to the fifth position in Africa.

The Atlas Lions of Morocco, Terangha Lions of Senegal, Carthage Eagles of Tunisia and Indomitable Lions of Cameroon are the African teams ahead of the Super Eagles in the ranking.
