England rise to third in FIFA rankings, target top spot

0

England have returned to third in the FIFA men’s world rankings after cruising through their Euro 2024 qualification campaign with Brazil falling out of the top four.

It is the equal highest position England have achieved in FIFA’s standings and head coach Gareth Southgate has made reaching top spot a priority for his players.

“We’re two places off where we need to be,” Southgate said earlier this month in anticipation of returning to third where England were in 2021. “Am I driven by being ranked number one? Yes, because ultimately you achieve that through consistency.”

World champions Argentina remain at the top with France second and Belgium in fourth spot.

Back-to-back defeats by Colombia and Argentina have seen Brazil drop down to fifth place.

Switzerland dropped four places to 18th while the biggest risers were the Comoros Islands who jumped nine spots to 119th after notable wins against Central African Republic and Ghana.
