The first FIFA Ranking update for 2024 is scheduled for today. Equatorial Guinea has experienced a remarkable rise among CAF nations, securing an unbeaten streak in 2023 and climbing to 88th place in the World Ranking.
With FIFA Forward Programme support, Equatorial Guinea has received USD 7.4 million for improving training fields.
In the upcoming update, we expect Seychelles to maintain their position at 199, the same rank they held after their last official games in the World Cup Qualifiers. The Women’s ranking update is yet to be scheduled, pending the completion of the Men’s ranking list. Despite having a population of fewer than two million, Equatorial Guinea’s investment in football infrastructure demonstrates their commitment to nurturing talent and improving the overall quality of the game in their nation.
The positive trajectory in the FIFA Rankings reflects their progress and sets the stage for further growth in the future.
