Malaysia drop six spots to 138th in FIFA rankings after double defeats to Oman

KUALA LUMPUR – The Harimau Malaya have slipped six rungs to 138th in the latest FIFA world rankings released today.

The Football Association of Malaysia said in a statement that the team, under the guidance of coach Kim Pan-gon, accumulated 1,094.54 points to drop from the 132nd spot that they had occupied since February 15.

The drop is due to the team losing 15.63 points following two 2-0 defeats to Oman in their group matches in the second round of the 2026 World Cup/2027 Asian Cup qualifiers in Muscat and at the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil on March 22 and March 26 respectively.

The results have left Malaysia rooted in third spot in Group D with six points while Kyrgyzstan, who thrashed Taiwan 5-1, are perched atop the standings with nine points, followed by Oman in second spot also with nine points. Taiwan prop up the table with no points.

Pan-gon’s men still have two more group matches to play – away to Kyrgyzstan in Bishkek on June 6 before completing their home fixtures against Taiwan at Bukit Jalil on June 11.

The latest update in FIFA’s rankings also sees Malaysia dropping one spot to 24th among Asian countries after being overtaken by Indonesia (23rd position). – April 4, 2024
