Ethiopia Walia Ibex managed to climb sixteen places up to 120th in the latest FIFA ranking released on Thursday 10th.
In July Walia Ibex were ranked 136th but the tide changed in what has been a change of fortunes since January.
The federation has been working to get friendly matches and the last one was against Zambia away where the sides drew 0-0 in an entertaining match played in Lusaka last weekend.
