Black Stars Maintain Position in Latest FIFA Coca-Cola Rankings

The Black Stars of Ghana have retained their position in the latest FIFA Coca-Cola rankings. The four-time African champions remain 64th globally and 12th on the African continent for the month of July.

Ghana’s victories over Mali and the Central African Republic during June’s World Cup qualifiers boosted their ranking, but they maintained their position in the subsequent weeks.

In contrast to European and South American countries, which participated in the European Championship and Copa America, the Black Stars were inactive in July.

Meanwhile, Argentina retains the top spot in the global rankings following their Copa America triumph, while Spain has climbed to third place after their success at the Euros.

Morocco, Senegal, Egypt, Cote d’Ivoire, and Nigeria occupy the top five spots in Africa.

Ghana will return to the field in September to start the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. The Black Stars will play against Angola in Kumasi before traveling to Niger for the second match in Group F.

The former African champions aim to secure a place in the Africa Cup of Nations, which will be hosted in Morocco next year.
