The July rankings are out, there are some changes and surprise as usual.
FIFA officially released the July batch with some typical top performers and few surprises as usual.
Iran are the top ranked team in Asia, sitting 23rd. This is actually a 3-spotdrop as they had managed last time around.
As for the ASEAN zone, Vietnam are the highest ranked team in Southeast Asia, grabbing 97th spot despite falling one position from the previous rankings in June.
While Thailand climbs up one spot to 115th position, Philippines remain in 126th spot. Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia also haven’t moved from their positions of 159th, 162nd and 160th respectively.
The big climbers in the ASEAN region are Myanmar, who have managed to jump three spots in the rankings following a consistent display recently, and now occupy the 135th position.
In the World Rankings, Belgium still leads the way, with Brazil moving up to second spot in the rankings following their recent Copa America triumph. France move down to third, while Lionel Messi’s Argentina is 10th.
