South Africa have dropped to 68th in the latest men's FIFA world rankings released following their 2022 World Cup qualifier defeat against Ghana last week.
Bafana Bafana lost 1-0 courtesy of Andre Ayew's first-half penalty at the Cape Coast stadium.
The defeat stole the headlines worldwide as the South African Football Association lodged an official complaint with FIFA regarding inconsistent match officiating by Senegalese referee Maguette Ndiaye.
