Earlier, Legit.ng had reported how Super Eagles of Nigeria were rated as the best third footballing nation in Africa in the latest FIFA ranking with Gernot Rohr and his men occupying 32nd in the world.

This latest rise by the Super Eagles in the FIFA ranking was as a result of their incredible wins over Lesotho and Benin in their last two games in March.

Gernot Rohr and his men were so superb in Porto Novo beating Benin 1-0, while they defeated visiting Lesotho 3-0 at the Teslim Balogun stadium in Lagos.

The two wins helped the Super Eagles to finish their campaign as leaders in their group and a ticket for the 2022 African Cup of Nations which will be played in Cameroon.
