La Roja Femenina vuelve a descender en nueva entrega del ranking FIFA

La Roja Femenina, the women’s national soccer team of Chile, has once again dropped in the latest FIFA ranking. The team fell two spots to 38th place, a result of not playing any matches during the past year. This marks the second consecutive drop in the FIFA ranking for the team, who were ranked as high as 37th just two years ago. The current ranking puts Chile behind other South American teams such as Brazil, Argentina, and Colombia.

Despite the decline in the ranking, La Roja Femenina has made significant progress in recent years. The team qualified for their first-ever World Cup in 2019 and even managed to earn a draw against Sweden, a top-ranked team in the world. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the team has struggled to maintain their momentum on the global stage.

The ranking system used by FIFA takes into account several factors, including match results and strength of opponents. With many teams unable to play matches due to COVID-19 restrictions, the rankings have become more unpredictable. However, the ranking still serves as a useful tool for measuring a team’s progress and standing in the international soccer community.

The drop in the ranking highlights the challenges that women’s soccer still faces, both in Chile and around the world. Despite the growing popularity of the sport, women’s teams still struggle to receive the same recognition and resources as their male counterparts. Nevertheless, La Roja Femenina continues to serve as an inspiration to young girls and women across the country, showing that anything is possible with dedication and hard work.
