The Super Eagles of Nigeria remain unchanged in the latest FIFA rankings released for May 2021 as the three-time African champions are in 32nd position.
Gernot Rohr’s men moved up to 32nd position in April following the win over Benin and Lesotho in its final 2021 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers, and remained in the position they were at in April 2021.
They also stay in third place on the African continent, just behind Senegal and Tunisia, respectively. The Teranga Lions of Senegal remain Africa’s number one nation and are ranked 22nd globally.
The Carthage Eagles of Tunisia are four places behind in 26th place. The rankings table looks likely to change when it’s released next month as there are many international matches taking place.
Meanwhile, the top ten also remain unchanged, with Belgium occupying the number one spot followed by France, Brazil, England and Portugal in that order.
