FIFA announced on Thursday the new ranking for national teams as of August 2017, with the Armenian national team moved up by one position to hold the 72nd now with 480 points.

According to the new ranking, the list is still topped by Brazil, followed by Germany and Argentina.

Among Armenia’s competitors in the FIFA World Cup 2018 Group E Poland holds the highest 5th position, Romania is the 42nd, Denmark – 46th, Montenegro – 52nd, and Kazakhstan is the 105th.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
