New Delhi [India], Oct 25 (ANI): Despite eking out a stalemate from China PR on October 13, the Indian men's football ranking is unfazed, as it continues to be placed at the 97th spot in the latest rankings released by Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA).
India's next international encounter is slated to be held on November 17 against Jordan, who have slumped two spots to 112 after their 2-1 defeat against World Cup runners-up Croatia in October.
