Ghana maintained a 46th position on the FIFA ranking for March 2020 as the table remained almost static due to the outbreak of the deadly coronavirus which led to the suspension of all football activities worldwide.
The Black Stars and all the other national teams in the world could not play any international friendly matches in the month of March because football is currently on suspension.
This has resulted in no football activities and, consequently, next-to-no movement in the latest FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking.
