The Bangladesh women’s football team slipped eight steps down to 112th in the latest FIFA rankings that were published on Thursday.
Bangladesh women’s football has played four matches in the last three months, losing all four encounters. They lost two friendly matches in Thailand by 3-0 and 5-1 in the October window.
The Peter Butter side also lost 1-0 to Malaysia and 2-1 to Azerbaijan in the recently concluded tri-nation series held in Dhaka. The team’s dismal performance has affected the rankings.
