Indian Men's Football Team FIFA Ranking: Blue Tigers Move to 99th Position After SAFF Championship 2023 Title Win
In a latest update, the Blue Tigers have now moved from the 100th to the 99th spot in the official FIFA Rankings. Sunil Chhetri and his team were last in action in the SAFF 2023 championship final, which they won by beating Kuwait on penalties in the final.
The Indian football team moved to the 99th spot in the latest FIFA Rankings. The Blue Tigers have had enjoyed a lot of success in recent times, winning three competitions--Tri-Nation tournament, Intercontinental Cup and SAFF Championship 2023 and this is a result of that. The Igor Stimac-led side have been playing some beautiful football of late and this increase in ranking would be a big boost to them in terms of being placed in Pot 2 of the FIFA World Cup 2026 Qualifiers.
