Bafana fall four places in Fifa rankings

After just one month, South Africa have fallen four places in Fifa rankings.

Bafana Bafana now lie 51st, below Iran and above Scotland.

This mean Bafana have dropped even further from their best-ever ranking, 16th in the world, reached August 1996.

South Africa have also dropped two place in Africa, to ninth, below Cameroon and above Morocco.

The Netherlands had to relinquish first place in the World to Spain.

With England having taken a tumble (8th, down 4), Germany (3rd, unchanged) now sit directly above Uruguay (4th, up 1), who occupy their highest-ever position on the global ladder.

Other movers towards the summit were Portugal (5th, up 3), Italy (6th, up 1) and Brazil (7th, down 1).
