Vietnam jumps seven places in FIFA rankings in January
Vietnam’s football team moved up seven places to 116th position in FIFA’s January rankings thanks to good performances during the month.

With the new rating, Vietnam secured second place in Southeast Asia, after Thailand (98th in the FIFA ranking), which also climbed up seven notches. In January, most football teams in the region fell in the ranking, like Indonesia (16 places), Singapore (10) and Myanmar (one).

In Asia, there were almost no remarkable changes in the FIFA rankings, except for China, which became one of the world’s top ten after successfully passing the qualifying round of the 2011 Asian Cup.

The Spanish team is still on top of the FIFA rankings, followed by Brazil and the Netherlands.
