PH Azkals surpass previous best, soar to highest FIFA ranking
The year 2018 continues to look good for Philippine football since the Azkals clinched a historic Asian Cup berth

MANILA, Philippines – The Philippine Azkals climbed two more spots to rank 111 in the world men’s football to surpass their previous high of 113 last April 2018 in the FIFA ranking.

 


 

Despite not playing in FIFA-accredited matches, the Azkals made the jump as Madagascar fell from 111 to 114 and Zimbabwe had one loss in May 2018 that pulled it down from 110 to 113. 

The good results from both the international “A” friendly against Fiji and the national team’s historic qualification to the Asian Cup at the expense of Tajikistan have contributed enough points for the Philippines to keep its FIFA ranking at an all-time high. – Rappler.com
