Timnas Putri Indonesia rose five spots to 105th in the live FIFA Women’s World Rankings released on October 15, 2026, reaching 1,175.79 points following a pair of scoreless friendly matches in Jordan. Based on data, Jordan occupied the 79th position, while Armenia stood at 146th.
Garuda Pertiwi Collects 1,175.79 Points After Two Scoreless Draws in Aqaba
The latest figures from governing body records show that Akira Higashiyama’s squad improved upon their previous ranking of 110th from June 26, 2026, when the team held 1,163 points. Despite failing to secure a victory during the international window, the national side accumulated enough points across two outings at the Aqaba Development Stadium to narrow the gap with regional rivals.
Indonesia opened the October schedule on October 10 against Armenia. That encounter ended in a 0-0 draw, costing the team 3,21 points in the global standings. Jurnal Kalimantan noted that Garuda Pertiwi pressed forward aggressively during the fixture, with Felicia de Zeeuw threatening on a header and Isabelle Nottet testing the opposition with long-range efforts before halftime, while forward Estella Loupatty was denied by Armenian goalkeeper Alina Poghosyan in the second half.
Three days later on October 13, the team met tournament host Jordan at the same venue and secured another 0-0 stalemate. Reports noted that Higashiyama deployed a starting lineup that featured Laita Masykuroh in goal alongside Safira Ika, Helsya Maeisyaroh, Remini Rumbewas, Gea Yumanda, Viny Silfianus, Isa Warps, and Claudia Scheunemann.
Although the second clean sheet yielded a modest addition of 3,69 points—offsetting the earlier deduction against Armenia—the overall arithmetic propelled Indonesia to 1,175.79 points. ANTARA News Sultra detailed that Jordanian attacks led by Lana Firas and Farah Abu Tayeh tested the Indonesian backline, while goalkeeper Laita Masykuroh preserved the result with crucial stops against set pieces from Aya Al Majali. Additional chances during the match featured Enas Jumaian being blocked by defender Pauline Van de Pol, Claudia Scheunemann being stopped by Jordanian goalkeeper Shereen Al-Shalabi, and an effort from Estella Loupatty missing wide.
