FIFA updated the ranking of women’s teams this Friday and with it it was known that the national team rose seven positions and stands out in the top 100. After the first edition of the W Gold Cup, Erika Acuña’s team made important progress in the top of the region.
The women’s national team now stands out in position 97 in the FIFA Ranking, after it was in position 104 on the list.
We must remember the path that the team had in the qualifying rounds towards the Gold Cup, in which it had a perfect pace by beating Nicaragua, Martinique and Honduras, almost in most games by a landslide.
In the group stage of the regional contest, and despite the fact that the team fell in the debut against Canada, they then faced Costa Rica and also generated a negative result and in the last match even though they tried to claim their way in In search of a ticket to the quarterfinals, the team fell to the Paraguayan team, and thus said goodbye to the first edition of the competition.
Compared to elite teams in the region such as Canada, the United States or Mexico, Salvadoran coach Eric Acuña’s team is still growing and hopes to continue growing ahead of the next Women’s World Cup.
The current world champion Spain remains in position 1 in the ranking, followed by England, France, the United States, the first winner of a Gold Cup, Germany, Sweden, Japan, the Netherlands, Canada and Brazil.
