JAKARTA - The Indonesian women's national team is eyeing an increase in the ranking in the FIFA match against Singapore on Monday at the Jalan Besar Stadium, Singapore.

Team head coach Rudy Eka Priyambada said the Indonesian players, who were strengthened by 20 players, had shown a lot of progress even though they had only undergone a training camp for three days.

Players are growing more and compact. Indeed, I don't give much training material because they have already trained with the club," said Rudy, quoted by Antara, Sunday.

"Here we just have to unite the team and go deeper to effective and defensive and transitional ways," he said.

According to the FIFA rankings as of August 5, Indonesia is currently ranked 101th in the world, while Singapore is in 133rd.

For the Southeast Asian region, the Indonesian women's national team is far below other ASEAN countries, such as Vietnam (33rd level), Thailand (41), Myanmar (48), the Philippines (53), Laos (85), and Malaysia (90).

"My hope on FIFA Matchday is that, just like the senior men's national team, we were able to raise our rankings because yesterday we had decreased from 96 to 101 because there were many FIFA Matchday matches that we didn't play, so we focused on raising our rankings," concluded Rudy.

The FIFA Matchday match will be broadcast live by TVRI at 19.00 WIB.
