title="FIFA">FIFA</a>, football's world governing body, are ranked based on their game results with the most successful teams being ranked highest. The rankings were introduced in December 1992, and eight teams (<a href="/wiki/Argentina_national_football_team" title="Argentina national football team">Argentina</a>, <a href="/wiki/Belgium_national_football_team" title="Belgium national football team">Belgium</a>, <a href="/wiki/Brazil_national_football_team" title="Brazil national football team">Brazil</a>, <a href="/wiki/France_national_football_team" title="France national football team">France</a>, <a href="/wiki/Germany_national_football_team" title="Germany national football team">Germany</a>, <a href="/wiki/Italy_national_football_team" title="Italy national football team">Italy</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Netherlands_national_football_team" title="Netherlands national football team">Netherlands</a> and <a href="/wiki/Spain_national_football_team" title="Spain national football team">Spain</a>) have held the top position, of which Brazil have spent the longest time ranked first. A points system is used, with points being awarded based on the results of all FIFA-recognised full international matches. The ranking system has been revamped on several occasions, generally responding to criticism that the preceding calculation method did not effectively reflect the relative strengths of the national teams. Since 16 August 2018, the ranking system has adopted the <a href="/wiki/Elo_rating_system" title="Elo rating system">Elo rating system</a> used in <a href="/wiki/Chess" title="Chess">chess</a> and <a href="/wiki/Go_(game)" title="Go (game)">Go</a>.

From the following August, this list was more frequently updated, to be published most months.<a href="#cite_note-FIFAcoke-2">[2]</a> Significant changes were implemented in January 1999 and again in July 2006, as a reaction to criticisms of the system.<a href="#cite_note-3">[3]</a> Historical records of the rankings, such as listed at FIFA.com, reflect the method of calculation in use at the time, as the current method has not been applied retrospectively to rankings before July 2006. Membership of FIFA has expanded from 167 to 211 since the rankings began; 211 members are currently included in the rankings. The <a href="/wiki/Cook_Islands_national_football_team" title="Cook Islands national football team">Cook Islands</a> were temporarily removed from the ranking in the period from September 2019 until February 2022, after <a href="/wiki/Cook_Islands_national_football_team_results" title="Cook Islands national football team results">not having played any matches</a> between 4 September 2015 until 17 March 2022.<a href="#cite_note-4">[4]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="1992–1998_calculation_method">1992–1998 calculation method</h3></div> The ranking formula used from December 1992 until December 1998, was devised by two Swiss <a href="/wiki/Lecturer" title="Lecturer">lecturers</a> from <a href="/wiki/University_of_Zurich" title="University of Zurich">University of Zurich</a> (Markus Lamprecht and Dr. Hanspeter Stam). The first formula was the most simple one, compared to later revisions, but it still required complex calculation. The main concept was to award points for matches played between all FIFA-affiliated national A teams, based on their results over the past eight years in FIFA-recognised matches (friendly matches, qualifying and finals matches for the World Cup, and qualifying and final matches for a Continental championship):<a href="#cite_note-Rankformula1992-5">[5]</a> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Three_points_for_a_win" title="Three points for a win">3 points for a win</a><a href="#cite_note-First_rankingpoints-6">[6]</a></li> <li>1 point for a draw<a href="#cite_note-First_rankingpoints-6">[6]</a></li> <li>0 point for a loss<a href="#cite_note-First_rankingpoints-6">[6]</a></li></ul> Results were not included from matches played by the FIFA association's: B teams, C teams, <a href="/wiki/Denmark_League_XI_national_football_team" class="mw-redirect" title="Denmark League XI national football team">League XI teams</a>, Women, U17, U20, U23 and <a href="/wiki/Futsal" title="Futsal">futsal teams</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Rankformula1992-5">[5]</a> The calculation formula was adjusted by the following factors:<a href="#cite_note-Rankformula1992-5">[5]</a> <ol><li>Points for winning, drawing or losing: Compensatory factors for the relative strength of the two teams involved are included, so that a victory of a lower-ranked team over a higher-ranked team is awarded a higher number of winning-points compared to a victory of a higher-ranked team over a lower-ranked team. Likewise the points from a draw will be higher for the lower-ranked team compared to the higher-ranked team.</li> <li>Points for goals scored or conceded: Goals are granted the same number of points whether or not they were scored in ordinary time or extended time. Zero points were granted from goals scored or conceded in a <a href="/wiki/Penalty_shoot-out_(association_football)" title="Penalty shoot-out (association football)">penalty shoot-out</a>. Goals scored by a higher-ranked team against a lower-ranked team was also given slightly fewer points, compared to goals scored by a lower-ranked team against a higher-ranked team. Moreover, it was decided that the first goal scored by a team would be awarded more points compared to the subsequently scored goals in the same match. The total number of points from goals being scored or conceded, would be of such small scale, that the points awarded from the match result (winning/drawing) would always be of a higher value.</li> <li>Bonus points for away matches: Regardless of the final match result, the away team is given 0.3 extra points for playing a match away from home. There will be no away bonus points for the teams, if the match is played on neutral grounds.</li> <li>Multiplying factors for various competitions: The importance of the match will affect the points awarded to the teams, so that the sum of points granted through the first three rules mentioned above, will be multiplied by the following factors: <ol><li>Friendly matches: × 1.00</li> <li>Qualifier for Continental championship: × 1.10</li> <li>Qualifier for World Cup: × 1.25</li> <li>Finals of Continental championship: × 1.25</li> <li>Finals of World Cup: × 1.50</li></ol></li> <li>Regional strengths and weaknesses: Regional strength is finally also factored into the award of points. In matches between teams from different continents, the granted points are multiplied by a factor of 1.0. In matches between teams from the same continent, the granted points will be multiplied by a factor of: 1.0 for European and South American teams, 0.9 for African and North+Central American teams, 0.8 for Asian & Oceanian teams.</li> <li>Overall resulting in this FIFA Rank calculation formula: (Sum of points from rule 1+2+3) * Rule4 Factor * Rule5 Factor, calculated for each recognized match played in the past eight years, with the total number of ranking points being the sum of points calculated for those matches.</li></ol> In example, despite being undefeated for all matches played in <a href="/wiki/England_national_football_team_results_(1980%E2%80%931999)#1994" title="England national football team results (1980–1999)">1994</a>, the world ranking of <a href="/wiki/England_national_football_team" title="England national football team">England</a> still dropped seven places from December 1993 to December 1994, because the team only scored points from six lower factored friendly games (as per rule 4). England did not play a single competitive match in 1994, because they had failed to qualify for the <a href="/wiki/1994_FIFA_World_Cup" title="1994 FIFA World Cup">1994 FIFA World Cup</a> and neither played qualifiers for the <a href="/wiki/UEFA_Euro_1996" title="UEFA Euro 1996">UEFA Euro 1996</a> as an automatically qualified host.<a href="#cite_note-7">[7]</a> The calculated results for the rankings published throughout 1992–1998, was at some point of time also rounded to the <a href="/wiki/Rounding#Rounding_to_the_nearest_integer" title="Rounding">nearest integer</a> by the official FIFA website,<a href="#cite_note-8">[8]</a> although other websites opted to publish the unrounded points of the ranking.<a href="#cite_note-Rankformula1992-5">[5]</a><a href="#cite_note-1993ranking-9">[9]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="1999–2006_calculation_method">1999–2006 calculation method</h3></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/FIFA_World_Ranking_system_(1999%E2%80%932006)" title="FIFA World Ranking system (1999–2006)">FIFA World Ranking system (1999–2006)</a></div> In January 1999, FIFA introduced a revised system of ranking calculation, incorporating many changes in response to criticism of inappropriate rankings. For the ranking all matches, their scores and importance were all recorded, and were used in the calculation procedure. Only matches for the senior men's national team were included. Separate ranking systems were used for other representative national sides such as women's and junior teams, for example the <a href="/wiki/FIFA_Women%27s_World_Rankings" class="mw-redirect" title="FIFA Women's World Rankings">FIFA Women's World Rankings</a>. The women's rankings were, and still are, based on a procedure which is a simplified version of the Football Elo Ratings.<a href="#cite_note-10">[10]</a> The major changes were as follows: <ul><li>the point ranking was scaled up by a factor of ten</li> <li>the method of calculation was changed to take into account factors including: <ul><li>the number of goals scored or conceded</li> <li>whether the match was played at home or away</li> <li>the importance of a match or competition</li> <li>regional strength</li></ul></li> <li>a fixed number of points were no longer necessarily awarded for a victory or a draw</li> <li>match losers were able to earn points</li></ul> A contemporary website, described the 1999-revision of the calculation formula to be something that "slightly modified and more finely tuned the tried and tested method of calculation", with the most impactful revisions being that from now on only the seven best matches annually are taken into account (removing the previous advantage of playing additional matches) along with an adjustment of the regional strength factors for confederations and the match importance factors for various competitions.<a href="#cite_note-11">[11]</a> The new ranking system continued the practice of the previous one,<a href="#cite_note-1993ranking-9">[9]</a><a href="#cite_note-12">[12]</a> to annually grant the awards: <ul><li><a href="#Team_of_the_Year">Team of the Year</a></li> <li><a href="#Best_Mover_of_the_Year">Best Mover of the Year</a></li></ul> The changes made the ranking system more complex, but helped improve its accuracy by making it more comprehensive. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="2006–2018_calculation_method">2006–2018 calculation method</h3></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/FIFA_World_Ranking_system_(2006%E2%80%932018)" title="FIFA World Ranking system (2006–2018)">FIFA World Ranking system (2006–2018)</a></div> FIFA announced that the ranking system would be updated following the <a href="/wiki/2006_FIFA_World_Cup" title="2006 FIFA World Cup">2006 World Cup</a>. The evaluation period was cut from eight to four years, and a simpler method of calculation was used to determine rankings.<a href="#cite_note-13">[13]</a> Goals scored and home or away advantage were no longer taken into account, and other aspects of the calculations, including the importance attributed to different types of match, were revised. The first set of revised rankings and the calculation methodology were announced on 12 July 2006. This change was rooted at least in part in widespread criticism of the previous ranking system. Many football enthusiasts felt it was inaccurate, especially when compared to other ranking systems and that it was not sufficiently responsive to changes in the performance of individual teams. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="2018_ranking_system_update">2018 ranking system update</h3></div> In September 2017, FIFA announced they were reviewing the ranking system and would decide after the end of the <a href="/wiki/2018_FIFA_World_Cup_qualification" title="2018 FIFA World Cup qualification">2018 FIFA World Cup qualification</a> whether any changes would be made to improve the ranking.<a href="#cite_note-14">[14]</a> FIFA announced on 10 June 2018 that the ranking system would be updated following the <a href="/wiki/2018_FIFA_World_Cup" title="2018 FIFA World Cup">2018 World Cup finals</a>. The calculation method adopted closely modelled the <a href="/wiki/Elo_rating_system" title="Elo rating system">Elo rating system</a> (see <a href="#Calculation_method">calculation method</a>). The weighting designated for each confederation for ranking purposes was abolished.<a href="#cite_note-15">[15]</a> The new methodology does not account for home or away games and margin of the victory, as in several popular unofficial Elo-based ranking systems.<a href="#cite_note-16">[16]</a> FIFA had intended to introduce the new ranking system in July 2018, but with no matches scheduled between the July and August ranking dates, delayed until August 2018. There was speculation from football journalists such as <a href="/wiki/ESPN" title="ESPN">ESPN</a>'s Dale Johnson that this was because projections of the new rankings had seen relatively little change in positions,<a href="#cite_note-17">[17]</a> with Germany – who had been eliminated in the first round of the World Cup – remaining as the top ranked team.<a href="#cite_note-18">[18]</a> FIFA had originally planned to use existing world ranking points from June 2018 as the start value, but when the August rankings appeared, the starting points had been changed to an equal distribution of points between 1600 (Germany, as the previously top ranked team) and 868 (Anguilla, Bahamas, Eritrea, Somalia, Tonga and Turks and Caicos Islands, which had 0 points in June), according to the formula: <dl><dd><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" alttext="{\displaystyle P_{\text{seeding}}=1600-(R-1)\times 4}"> <semantics> <mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"> <mstyle displaystyle="true" scriptlevel="0"> <msub> <mi>P</mi> <mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"> <mtext>seeding</mtext> </mrow> </msub> <mo>=</mo> <mn>1600</mn> <mo>−</mo> <mo stretchy="false">(</mo> <mi>R</mi> <mo>−</mo> <mn>1</mn> <mo stretchy="false">)</mo> <mo>×</mo> <mn>4</mn> </mstyle> </mrow> <annotation encoding="application/x-tex">{\displaystyle P_{\text{seeding}}=1600-(R-1)\times 4}</annotation> </semantics> </math><img src="https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/f7b114998ea5ff98b06e973a846df8b13148edab" class="mwe-math-fallback-image-inline mw-invert skin-invert" aria-hidden="true" style="vertical-align: -1.005ex; width:29.107ex; height:3.009ex;" alt="{\displaystyle P_{\text{seeding}}=1600-(R-1)\times 4}">,</dd></dl> where R is the rank in June 2018. When two or more teams had equal ranks, the following team received the next immediate rank possible, e.g. if two teams had R=11, the following team had R=12, not 13. Then the rating changes according to the games played after previous release were calculated.<a href="#cite_note-Resources-19">[19]</a><a href="#cite_note-August_18_rankings-20">[20]</a> This produced

Success at the <a href="/wiki/2002_FIFA_World_Cup" title="2002 FIFA World Cup">2002 FIFA World Cup</a> restored Brazil to the top position, where they remained until February 2007, when Italy returned to the top for the first time since 1993 following their <a href="/wiki/2006_FIFA_World_Cup" title="2006 FIFA World Cup">2006 FIFA World Cup</a> win in Germany. Just one month later, <a href="/wiki/Argentina_national_football_team" title="Argentina national football team">Argentina</a> replaced them, reaching the top for the first time, but Italy regained its place in April. After winning the <a href="/wiki/Copa_Am%C3%A9rica_2007" class="mw-redirect" title="Copa América 2007">Copa América 2007</a> in July, Brazil returned to the top, but were replaced by Italy in September and then Argentina in October. In July 2008, <a href="/wiki/Spain_men%27s_national_football_team" class="mw-redirect" title="Spain men's national football team">Spain</a> took over the lead for the first time, having won <a href="/wiki/UEFA_Euro_2008" title="UEFA Euro 2008">UEFA Euro 2008</a>.

In April 2010, Brazil returned to the top of the table.

Belgium led the rankings until April 2016, when Argentina returned to the top.

The perceived flaws in the FIFA system have led to the creation of a number of alternative rankings from football statisticians.<a href="#cite_note-BBC_report-33">[31]</a> The initial system was very simple, with no weighting for the quality of opponent or importance of a match. This saw <a href="/wiki/Norway_national_football_team" title="Norway national football team">Norway</a> reach second in October 1993 and July–August 1995, a ranking that was criticised at the time.<a href="#cite_note-BBC_report-33">[31]</a> The rankings were <a href="/wiki/FIFA_World_Ranking_system_(1999%E2%80%932006)" title="FIFA World Ranking system (1999–2006)">adapted in 1999</a> to include weightings based on the importance of the match and the strength of the opponent. A win over a weak opponent resulted in fewer points being awarded than a win over a much stronger one. Further <a href="/wiki/FIFA_World_Ranking_system_(2006%E2%80%932018)" title="FIFA World Ranking system (2006–2018)">adaptations in 2006</a> were made to reduce the number of years' results considered from 8 to 4,<a href="#cite_note-BBC_report-33">[31]</a><a href="#cite_note-travour-34">[32]</a> with greater reliance on matches from within the previous 12 months. Still, criticisms of the rankings remained, with particular anomalies being noted including: the <a href="/wiki/United_States_men%27s_national_soccer_team" title="United States men's national soccer team">United States</a> rise to fourth in 2006, to the surprise of even their own players;<a href="#cite_note-GnM-35">[33]</a> <a href="/wiki/Israel_national_football_team" title="Israel national football team">Israel</a>'s climb to 15th in November 2008, which surprised the Israeli press;<a href="#cite_note-36">[34]</a><a href="#cite_note-37">[35]</a><a href="#cite_note-38">[36]</a> and <a href="/wiki/Belgium_national_football_team" title="Belgium national football team">Belgium</a>'s rank of world number 1 in November 2015, even though Belgium had only played in one tournament final stage in the past 13 years.<a href="#cite_note-39">[37]</a> Further criticisms of the 2006–2018 formula included the inability of hosts of major tournaments to retain a high place in the rankings, as the team participated in only lower-value friendly matches due to their automatic qualification for the tournament. For example, <a href="/wiki/2014_FIFA_World_Cup" title="2014 FIFA World Cup">2014 FIFA World Cup</a> hosts Brazil fell to a record low ranking of 22nd in the world before that tournament,<a href="#cite_note-40">[38]</a><a href="#cite_note-41">[39]</a> at which they then finished fourth. <a href="/wiki/2018_FIFA_World_Cup" title="2018 FIFA World Cup">2018 FIFA World Cup</a> hosts Russia had the lowest ranking (70th) at the tournament, where they reached the quarter-finals before bowing out to eventual finalists <a href="/wiki/Croatia_national_football_team" title="Croatia national football team">Croatia</a> on penalties. In the 2010s, teams realised the ranking system could be 'gamed', specifically by avoiding playing non-competitive matches, particularly against weaker opponents.<a href="#cite_note-Switzerland-42">[40]</a> This was because the low weighting of friendlies meant that even victories could reduce a team's average score: in other words, a team could win a match and lose points. Before the seeding of the <a href="/wiki/2018_FIFA_World_Cup_qualification_(UEFA)" title="2018 FIFA World Cup qualification (UEFA)">2018 World Cup preliminary draw</a>, Romania even appointed a ranking consultant, playing only one friendly in the year before the draw.<a href="#cite_note-autogenerated1-43">[41]</a><a href="#cite_note-44">[42]</a><a href="#cite_note-45">[43]</a> Similar accusations had been made against <a href="/wiki/Switzerland_national_football_team" title="Switzerland national football team">Switzerland</a>, who were a seeded team at the <a href="/wiki/2014_FIFA_World_Cup" title="2014 FIFA World Cup">2014 FIFA World Cup</a> having played only three friendly matches in the previous year,<a href="#cite_note-Switzerland-42">[40]</a> and <a href="/wiki/Poland_national_football_team" title="Poland national football team">Poland</a> before the <a href="/wiki/2018_FIFA_World_Cup" title="2018 FIFA World Cup">2018 FIFA World Cup</a>.<a href="#cite_note-46">[44]</a> The use of regional strength multiplier in the ranking formula before 2018 was also accused of further reinforcing and perpetuating the bias for and against certain regions.<a href="#cite_note-47">[45]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Calculation_method">Calculation method</h2></div> On 10 June 2018, the new ranking system was approved by the FIFA Council.
