Super Eagles of Nigeria have been rated as the best third footballing nation in Africa in the latest FIFA ranking.
The three-time African champions are placed 32nd in the world.
This latest rise by the Super Eagles in the FIFA ranking was as a result of their incredible wins over Lesotho and Benin in their last two games in March. Gernot Rohr and his men were so superb in Porto Novo beating Benin 1-0, while they defeated visiting Lesotho 3-0 at the Teslim Balogun stadium in Lagos. The two wins helped the Super Eagles to finish their campaign as leaders in their group and a ticket for the 2022 African Cup of Nations which will be played in Cameroon.
Senegal are occupying first position in Africa and they are placed 22 in the world, while Tunisia occupy second in Africa and are 26th in the world. In the global ranking, Belgium are still the best footballing country in the world and they are being followed by France, while Brazil occupy third position. England are fourth in the world ranking, while Portugal are occupying fifth position.
