    Wales have risen to their highest world ranking for 20 years after climbing 12 places to join Scotland in joint 29th.

    The 2-1 win in Andorra helped the Welsh, who were down at 116 less than four years ago, to their highest position since March 1994.

    I find it hard to believe that there's been such an improvement. Anyone else find this a little unbelievable?

    Yes. We should be first.

    FIFA world rankings are mind boggling most of the time. Really only the top 5 or so are accurate (and even then sometimes England get up around there <yikes>)

    About time we moved in the right direction, let's hope it continues as such.
