due to consecutive defeats in the first two rounds of the world cup qualifiers held earlier this month, the international ranking of the chinese men's football team will drop from the current 87th in the world to 91st, setting a record for the lowest world ranking in nearly 8 and a half years. although the chinese national football team is still ranked 13th in asia, its ranking points are only less than 1 point higher than the syrian team behind it. this means that if the chinese national football team continues to perform poorly in the third and fourth rounds of the 18-strong match in october, it is likely to be overtaken by the syrian team and fall to 14th in asia.

since entering 2024, the chinese team has participated in 9 official international matches (3 in the asian cup and 6 in the world cup qualifiers), with a record of 1 win, 4 draws and 4 losses. due to more losses than wins, the chinese team's technical points in fifa have generally shown a downward trend, and its international ranking has also fallen accordingly.

top 15 in asia:

1-japan (16)

2 - iran (19)

3-south korea (23)

4 - australia (25)

5 - qatar (44)

6 - iraq (55)

7-saudi arabia (56)

8 - uzbekistan (60)

9 - jordan (68)

10 - united arab emirates (69)

11 - bahrain (76)

12 - oman (78)

13-china (91)

14 - syria (92)

15 - palestine (100)

the last fifa member association men's football team (men's national team) international rankings released in july this year showed that the chinese team ranked 87th in the world and 13th in asia. however, in the first two rounds of the top 18 matches held on september 5 and 10, the chinese team lost to the japanese team 0-7 and the saudi team 1-2, thus suffering two consecutive defeats. although the two opponents are higher in the tier and international ranking than the chinese team, because a certain number of points will be deducted for losing, the chinese team's world ranking will drop by 4 places to 91st in the world.

the chinese national football team's ranking has dropped to 90+, which is also the lowest in the past eight years. in 2016, china's worst ranking was 96th.
