Uganda Cranes have slipped two places in the latest FIFA World Ranking, dropping from 83rd in October to 85th following the recent international break.

The national team recorded mixed results in their two friendlies—beating Chad 2–1 before suffering a heavy 4–0 defeat to Morocco.

Despite the slide, Uganda remain the highest-ranked side in East Africa. Tanzania sit 112th, Kenya 113th and Rwanda 131st.
