The French team is on the verge of making a very nice move in the FIFA rankings.
Football is definitely the sport of all paradoxes. While
the French team is preparing to complete the most delicate year of the Deschamps era according to many observers, the French selection could conclude these twelve months with an unexpected performance.
France could indeed take first place in the FIFA rankings. A small feat that she has not achieved since September 2018, in a period where she was riding on her second star won in Russia during the World Cup.
The Blues remain a reference
How could the French team have considered this ranking at the end of such a mixed year on a collective level? The answer lies in the performance of its competitors. Long sovereign, Argentina, which has won everything for 4 years, slowed down a bit at the end of the year. The Albiceleste, however, remains the world’s leading nation at the moment, but it will leave its seat to the Blues if it does not win against Peru on the night of Tuesday to Wednesday (1 a.m.).
Furthermore, this last gathering of the year is ultimately sufficient, in terms of results, to aim for this first place. Despite the disappointing draw against Israel (0-0), the Blues made up for it by signing a great victory in Italy (3-1).
The FIFA ranking:
1. Argentina, 1883.5 pts
2. France, 1859.85
3. Spain, 1844.33
4. England, 1807.83
5. Brazil, 1784.37
6. Belgium, 1761.27
7. Portugal, 1752.68
8. Netherlands, 1748.24
9. Italy, 1729.4
10. Colombia, 1724.37
