Ghana has been ranked 60th in the FIFA World ranking for September as Morocco’s run as Africa’s highest ranked nation continues.
The Atlas Lions moved up two spots on the rankings to 13th while reigning African champion Senegal ranks 18th after dropping two spots.
The Black Stars on the other hand, continues to sit outside the top 10 ranked nations in Africa as the four time AFCON winner ranks 11th in the rankings.
The ranking comes in the wake of the immediate past international football window where Ghana beat Central African Republic (CAR) 2-1 to book its place at the 2023 AFCON.
Progressing to compete in next year’s AFCON in Cote D’Ivoire marks Ghana’s 10th consecutive appearance at the glamour competition.
The Black Stars followed the win up with a 3-1 win over Liberia in an international friendly game to extend head coach Chris Hughton’s unbeaten run to five games since taking over as the lead man on the sideline.
