FIFA RANKING - April 2017 FOR AFRICA

George Weah

 

Liberia were the biggest losers in Fifa's world rankings for April, dropping 39 places to sit in 141st spot - and a lowly 40th best in Africa.

Their position is only 19 places better than their worst ever ranking of 160th place, which they occupied in 2010.

The west African country have been as high as 73rd spot, in 2001, when they could still field former world player of the year George Weah.

Nigeria and Tunisia have swapped in the only moves in the African top 10.

Africa's top 10 in Fifa's rankings for April (last month's rankings in brackets):
01 (01) Egypt
02 (02) Senegal
03 (03) Cameroon
04 (04) Burkina Faso
05 (07) Nigeria
06 (06) DR Congo
07 (05) Tunisia
08 (08) Ghana
09 (09) Ivory Coast
10 (10) Morocco
