Nigeria have maintained their seventh position in Africa and 41st in the world according to the latest FIFA ranking released on Thursday.
The Super Eagles failed to play any game between the last ranking and the one under review but that did not affect the team’s position.
African champions Cameroon, who Nigeria face in the FIFA World Cup qualifier in August are third in Africa and 32nd in the world.
The other teams in Nigeria’s World Cup qualifying group Algeria and Zambia are in 50th and 90th position respectively in the world ranking.
Argentina lead the world ranking with 1644 points with Brazil, Germany, Chile and Belgium following the Albiceleste in that order.
