The Gambia has improved 5 places globally on the latest FIFA Coca-Cola football ranking released yesterday 28 November 2013.

The Gambia moved from its previous global ranking of 139 in October to 134 but maintain its previous ranking of 40 in the continent.

The ranking has left The Gambia 14 places above 14 countries in the globe.
