According to calculations by the global football ranking site Footy Ranking , the Thai team will increase 12 places, from 113th before the 2023 Asian Cup starts, to 101st FIFA rank after this tournament.
With the above promotion speed, the team from the land of the golden pagoda is one of the teams with the strongest promotion in Asia after nearly 1 month of the Asian Cup. Thailand's promotion speed is only behind the 2 teams that reached the final of this tournament, Qatar and Jordan.
Accordingly, Asian champion Qatar rose 21 places, from 58th to 37th FIFA. As for Asian Cup runner-up Jordan, this team rose 14 places, from 87th to 73rd FIFA.
Qatar is the strongest promoted team after Asian Cup 2023
In contrast to the rapid rise of the above 3 teams, Footy Ranking also made preliminary statistics, there will be 3 teams that will be strongly relegated after the recently concluded Asian Football Championship, including India, Vietnam and China. All 3 of these teams were eliminated after the group stage of the 2023 Asian Cup.
The biggest drop was India. The team from the world's most populous country fell 15 places, from 102nd to 117th in FIFA. At the 2023 Asian Cup, India lost all 3 matches in Group B: 0-2 to Australia, 0-3 to Uzbekistan and 0-1 to Syria. This team has 2 big zeros, including 0 points and 0 goals scored.
