Stars are 116 with 303 points from previous 115, a negative one drop. The Coach Stanley Okumbi’s side have been on a free fall lately following a back to back loss to Equatorial Guinea in the AFCON 2017 qualifiers in March.
Close door neighbors Uganda remains the best ranked team in the East Africa region at position 72 same as the last ranking in March, followed by the CHAN 2015 host Rwanda at 87 who have also remained static.
Other countries that have remained unchanged in the current log includes; Ethiopia (123), Burundi (122) and South Sudan (155).
Two have had positive gains, namely; Sudan (128) and Tanzania (129) both moving a step upward.
Algeria (33) and Ivory Coast (34) are the best ranked teams in Africa, while Argentina (1) and Belgium (2) are the best in the world.
