Gabon have dropped three places in the African rankings from third to sixth.

They've been replaced at number three by six-times African champions Egypt.

Democratic Republic of Congo are the biggest fallers, they dropped 22 places in the global rankings.

Hosts of the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations, Angola have jumped 10 places.

Another side to make a significant leap is Congo-Brazzaville.
