Kenya drop six places in FIFA ranking

Kenya has dropped six positions in the latest FIFA world rankings released on September 14.

Harambee Stars who were ranked 82 last month, now sit on position 88 in the world and 17 places below neighbors Uganda in the global index.

Kenya’s poor performance was largely contributed by Harambee Star’s two draws against Mozambique (1-1) and Mauritania (1-1) and a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Morocco's under 23 side in the last FIFA international week.
