Afghanistan in Its Peak in FIFA World Ranking



Afghanistan jumped 10 steps higher in May FIFA World Ranking Table and reached to 164, its highest ever place in the table. Following victory over Sri Lanka in April's Afc Challenge Cup Qualifier, Afghanistan was expected to reach this point.

164 is the highest place in the table for Afghanistan so far. They have reached to 173 in July 2006, but since then they were not in good mode until last month when they climbed to 174 following to consecutive defeats over Bhutan.

Afghanistan, with 77 overall points have climbed to 32 in AFC, which shows a 6 step jump.

Afghanistan's move in this month's table is the second highest jump after Senegal which climbed 11 steps, one more than Afghanistan.
