Vietnam have risen one place to 34th in the latest FIFA Women’s World Rankings published last week.

They rank sixth in Asia behind Australia (8th), North Korea (9th), Japan (10th), China (16th), and South Korea (20th).

The Vietnamese women’s football team is currently the strongest in Southeast Asia after becoming the AFF champions by defeating Thailand in August to end Thailand’s three-year reign as champions.

Thailand are now 39th in the world and seventh in Asia.

The U.S., Germany and Netherlands respectively remain the top three while the bottom three are Comoros, Madagascar and Mauritius.
