Macedonia moved up 3 places and is now 89th in the latest FIFA/Coca-Cola ranking list that was published today.

Although the team did not play any games during the last month, Macedonia still moved up 3 places, because of other teams slipping down the table. Both in July and August, Macedonia had 395 points. The ranking for the next month will be important as three matches (friendly against Bulgaria and qualifiers against Wales and Scotland) will be taken into consideration.
