I’m not surprised. The players and the NFF should have done more to ensure Nigeria played at the WC. The consequences are beginning to unveil
Why Brazil remains noba 1 and Argentina 2 and in Africa Morocco 1 Senegal 2 .
Senegal shud be 1 instead.

Abi NFF BRIBE the FIFA RANKING BOARD?
Meh…WE are suppose to even be out of TOP 20 in AFRICA and then 100 in the WORLD…

Croatia deserves to be in the top 5 than England.
The fifa ranking means nothing to our football, course i know it does show good reflection of our football. The super eagles supposed rank too low bcoz we are not doing well in our past matches
Where is Comoros Wife’s ranked???
Is ranked in ur ass asshole lol
Cheap punk
The ranking is non-sense and meaningless. How come Brazil rank so high above Carmaroon when they defeated Brazil in this World Cup?
Are they ranking Nigeria above Ghana in African rankings. Ghana was there and Nigeria were not.
The moment Rohr was nominally terminated, the slide for Nigeria football became unsustainable. Nigeria may not even qualify for the next AFCON. Looking at all the indexes currently, my bet is vehemently against Nigeria going up in African football.
