Uganda slips in latest FIFA Rankings

Burundi and South Sudan are ranked 142nd and 169th respectively globally.

Meanwhile 2019 AFCON runners-up Senegal maintains their position as the best ranked country in Africa and 22nd globally followed by Tunisia (26th globally).

Belgium remains the best ranked country on the globe with 1,783 points, followed by France and Brazil.
