The Super Falcons of Nigeria has dropped nine places in the latest FIFA rankings to 38th position in the world.
The poor position of the Falcons can be attributed to the abysmal performance of the team at the All Africa Games where they failed to win any medals and their failure to qualify for next year’s Olympics in Rio, Brazil.
The Falcons who are being handled by caretaker coach Chris Danjuma played seven matches in total in September.
