There is a change in the FIFA nations ranking. After the March meetings, the main major fact concerns the podium. While Argentina has retained its leading place after its victories against Uruguay (1-0) and Brazil (4-1), France has certainly qualified for the Final Four of the League of Nations, but the men of Didier Deschamps are no longer second.

Spain, reigning European champion, took advantage of the defeat of the Blues in Croatia (during the quarter -final first one) to pass him in front. Our tricolors remain on the podium (3rd) and are now threatened by England (4th). Brazil is still fifth, while the Netherlands have chip the sixth place in Portugal (7th). Belgium (8th), Italy (9th) and Germany (10th) complete the top 10.

The classification:

  1. Argentina: 1886.16 points
  2. Spain: 1854.64
  3. France: 1852.71
  4. England: 1819.2
  5. Brazil: 1776.03
  6. Netherlands: 1752.44
  7. Portugal: 1750.08
  8. Belgium: 1735.75
  9. Italy: 1718.31
  10. Germany: 1716.98
