Belgium tops FIFA rankings for first time
Belgium moved to the top of the FIFA world ranking list for the first time yesterday after overtaking Argentina and world champion Germany following its victories in last month’s European qualifiers.
Chile moved up four places to fifth to also reach its highest position, while Austria improved one place to a best ever tenth place. Belgium, which was third last month, beat Andorra 4-1 and Israel 3-1 in its final two Euro 2016 qualifiers to seal its place in next year’s finals in France as Group B winner. Argentina, which was top, slipped back to third while Germany stayed in second place. Portugal is No. 4. England rose one place to ninth with Brazil in eighth spot.
