THE Super Eagles of Nigeria have remained 39th in the FIFA world ranking released by the football governing body.

Recall that the Eagles dropped from 38th to 39th last month after a series of bad performances as they failed to win their last four qualifying games under former Head Coaches, Jose Peseiro and Finidi Geroge.
