Pakistan rise to 158 in FIFA Rankings

By Shahrukh Sohail, Chief Editor, Islamabad

The Pakistan Football Team recorded a seven point rise in the latest FIFA rankings issued for the month of March.

Although, the Pak Shaheens did not play on the designated 5th March FIFA Date, the game against Lebanon in February provided fans with something to cheer about. And even though that resulted in a 3-1 loss, the rise in rankings is due to the loss of points experienced by other countries, allowing Pakistan to go to 158 from 165.

Afghanistan, Maldives and India are the only SAFF Countries ahead of Pakistan at the moment, with the Lions of Khorasan leading the pack at 127.
