A stunning 3-0 setback against Guinea-Bissau has cost Nigeria four spots in the newest FIFA world rankings.
Following an inconsistent showing during the latest international window, the Super Eagles fell from 26th to 30th globally, leaving them in sixth place on the African continent.
In contrast, Guinea-Bissau climbed eight positions thanks to their memorable upset against the three-time continental champions. The Wild Dogs now control the summit of Group L in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, securing a maximum of six points from two fixtures after back-to-back triumphs over Nigeria and Tanzania.
