The Super Eagles of Nigeria dropped one place from 47th position to 48th in the latest FIFA world ranking.

The latest ranking was released on Thursday on FIFA’s official website.

This was expected as the three time African champions lost three of their last five games. The Super Eagles also lost 17 points from last month’s 635. They are now on 618.

Incidentally, none of Nigeria’s group opponents at the Russia 2018 World Cup rose in the ranking.
