The Super Eagles have slipped down in the latest FIFA\/Coca-Cola World Ranking released for the month of April on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Nigeria now occupies the 31st position in world football, according to April\u2019s FIFA rankings.<\/p>\n

The Black Stars of Ghana also slipped down two places in the World Ranking but maintained their hold as the number two on the continent. <\/p>\n

The Black Stars are now ranked 22 in the World.<\/p>\n

The Super Eagles needed a last-minute equaliser to draw 1-1 with Kenya in Calabar, in a World Cup qualifying match and that result has seen them drop from the 30th spot they sat for the past two months.<\/p>\n

However, Nigeria is still fourth in Africa, behind Cote D\u2019Ivoire, Ghana and Mali.<\/p>\n

World champions Spain are still locked up as the number one ahead of Germany and Argentina.<\/p>\n
