Tasnim - Iran remained unchanged in the FIFA rankings this month, staying at 42nd in the table.

In the May edition released in Zurich on Thursday, Iran still remains Asia’s highest ranked team and 42nd in the world.

With no A-international matches played in April, the May edition of the FIFA World Ranking provided a brief moment of security for teams eager to hold onto their top positions.

All teams in the Top 50 maintained their positions this month, while the regional composition of said teams also remained unaffected since last month’s ranking. For May, UEFA has 30 teams in the Top 50, CONMEBOL 8, CAF 7, CONCACAF 3, AFC 2 and OFC 0.
