166th place for Macedonia for March 2017, the lowest place ever on the FIFA world ranking list.
The Macedonian national team desperately awaits for the WC qualifier against Liechtenstein to finally record a win and climb some places on the FIFA ranking list as this way without playing friendlies and only losing the qualifiers we go down and down.
This month we are lowest ranked in our history as we reached the 166th place! In the next rankings we will have two games played, the road WC qualifier against Liechtenstein and the home friendly against Belarus, a chance to get back on feet.
