The Super Eagles of Nigeria have again dropped by one spot in the FIFA World Ranking to place world 39th in the July standing.
In the ranking table by the world football governing body, the Super Eagles still maintained the 1,498.93 it had in June.
It would be recalled that the team suffered a massive drop in the June ranking from 30th to 38th after lacklustre performances in the World Cup qualifying matches.
The drop on the global stage in July however did not affect the team’s position on the continental stage as the 5th behind Morocco, Senegal, Egypt, and Cote d ‘Ivoire.

On the global scene, three continental competitions and a plethora of international friendlies have been served up in June and July, with no fewer than 125 matches having been contested across the globe.
Having successfully defended their Copa America title, Argentina (1st) tighten their grip at the top of the pile. France (2nd) are still their closest challengers, after reaching the semi-finals of Euro 2024.
Newly crowned European champions Spain (3rd, up 5) have yet more reason to celebrate after hauling themselves into the top three of the ranking.
England (4th, up 1) are just behind the leading pack, having leapfrogged Brazil (5th, down 1) and Belgium (6th, down 3) now find themselves outside the top five.
