Morocco has reached its highest-ever position in the FIFA men's world rankings, climbing to eighth place following a strong showing at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. Despite losing the final to Senegal, who rose to a record 12th, the Atlas Lions returned to the top 10 for the first time since 1998. The update, released on January 20, 2026, reflects the impact of the recent AFCON tournament on African teams.
Vietnam claimed the biggest rise in FIFA's December 22 men's world rankings, jumping three spots to a 2025-high 107th globally (19th in Asia) after defeating Laos, while Malaysia fell to 121st over ineligible players. As Spain holds No. 1 in this final 2025 update (overview in series), the changes spotlight Asian preparations for major tournaments.
