Egypt reach best-ever position in FIFA ranking
Sherif Tarek Published in FilGoal on 14 - 01 - 2009

Egypt made slight progress in the monthly FIFA ranking for national teams by moving up to the 15th place for the first time ever.
The Pharaohs unprecedentedly leaped into the 16th place last month, and yet they advanced one more place in the January edition to mark their best-ever rank.
Regionally, the six-time African champions are way ahead of all Arab teams, among which Morocco are the closest to Egypt despite being ranked 41st.
However, Hassan Shehata's men are not the best-ranked African team, as they are trailing CAN 2008 finalists Cameroon by one place.
European champions Spain are still on top, while Germany are ranked second, and Netherlands come third.
