Brazil, Nigeria move up In FIFA Rankings

The Super Eagles of Nigeria are the 38th best team in the world according to the latest FIFA ranking for the month of August released on Thursday.

The Super Eagles who are 6th in Afica moved one up from last month’s 39th place in the world, while they maintained their position on the continent behind Egypt, Senegal, Congo DR, Tunisia, and Cameroon respectively.

World champions Germany were knocked off by Brazil to second despite winning the Confederations Cup last month after some rolling historical results were devalued.
