Macedonia moved up two places and is now the 84th ranked team in the latest FIFA/Coca-Cola rankings that were released today.

Not playing a game in November meant that Macedonia couldn’t gain much, but also couldn’t lose many points in the case of a loss. Therefore, Macedonia lost 9 points since the previous rankings for last month, but still managed to move up two places to the 84th position.  Macedonia is now tied with Congo on the list with 421 points apiece.
