The Indonesian National Team Will Overtake the Ranking of These 5 Countries If They Win Against Japan, Who Are They? The Indonesian National Team against Bahrain.

Kapanlagi.com - The long-awaited match is about to happen! The Indonesian National Team will face Japan in a crucial match of the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers for the Asian Zone. Taking place at the Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium in Jakarta, this duel is not just a battle to advance to the final round, but also has a significant impact on Indonesia's position in the FIFA rankings.

If Garuda manages to secure a victory, they will accumulate a total of 1,140.94 points, which could elevate their position from 130th to 125th in the world. This victory also means Indonesia could surpass five other countries in the FIFA standings, including India, which is currently ranked 125th.

Of course, the question arises: which countries will be surpassed, and what is the impact of this match on Indonesia's position in Southeast Asia? Check out the complete review summarized by Kapanlagi.com from various sources, Wednesday (13/11).

1. Central African Republic

The Central African Republic currently has a total of 1,125.26 points, placing it above Indonesia in the FIFA rankings. However, there is bright hope for football fans in the homeland.

If Indonesia can conquer Japan, an additional 22.07 points will allow Indonesia to surpass the Central African Republic and achieve a highly anticipated accomplishment.

2. Gambia

Next, Gambia occupies the 128th position with a total of 1,125.62 points and has just surged seven places in October 2024.

However, if the Indonesian national team manages to secure a victory over Japan, they will surpass Gambia in the FIFA rankings, an achievement that will be a source of pride for the homeland.

3. Cyprus

The Cyprus national team, which is currently ranked 127th with 1,127.51 points, has just experienced a drop of four positions in the previous FIFA rankings.

However, if Indonesia succeeds in defeating Japan, Cyprus's position will further decline, and this will be a historic moment for Indonesia, showcasing rapid progress on the global football stage.

4. Rwanda

Rwanda is currently ranked 126 with a total of 1,130.04 points, after successfully jumping four places last October.

However, if Indonesia manages to defeat Japan, Rwanda must be prepared to relinquish its position and drop one level below the Garuda Squad, which is striving for higher achievements.

5. India

In 125th place, India, known by the nickname "The Blue Tigers," has just celebrated a rise of one rank.

However, an interesting challenge lies ahead: if Indonesia manages to defeat Japan, India will be forced to step back, and Indonesia has the potential to push them down to 125th place in the world.

A battle that will surely spice up the competition in international football!

6. Impact of Defeat and Heavy Challenges

A victory against Japan is a great hope for all Indonesian football lovers. However, if the result turns into a defeat, Indonesia risks losing around 2.93 points which could shake their position in the standings.

The threat becomes more real with Malaysia having the opportunity to gain full points when competing against Laos, considering the very slim point difference. Failing to earn points in this match will certainly put Indonesia under more pressure from their rival.

On the other hand, if the match ends in a draw, Indonesia can still pocket an additional 9.57 points, which is enough to maintain or even improve their position in the standings.
