Nice. We are 18th now.

We will actually be ranked 17th once the new ranking comes out next week. Senegal will have dropped to 18

First time since June 2005 that we are ranked 17th

[mbaizai]

Didn't we reach 15th at some time during CQ era?

15 is highest rank we have ever been, don't remember the year though

[persian-eagle-13]

None of these rankings matter.

[arj42]

July 2005 - 15
August 2005 - 15

None of these rankings matter.

It matters for seeding

[arj42]

If we had just beat Uzbekistan we would be 16 right now!

It matters for seeding

It hurts us more than anything.
We can't be 15th or 16 or even 18th when spending 3 years since WC playing only second rate asian teams, the weakest WCQ group and Japan once. I remerber the hype of our WC22 group to have the best fifa ranking and end us losing 6/2 and having a pathetic show by Wales.

the seeding isn't important as geographical restrictions will come into account. And if the fifa ranking is another excuse for GN to use the same old line up for the upcoming games, then the draw isn't important.

the lower the seeding the easier the group.
Unless due to political reasons iran is thrown in Mexico group
Than it be blessing from sky.

Unfortunately my prediction is tm will be ban from wc.

2022 group
WAS OUR HARDEST EVER
4 TOP 20 TEAMS.
And that 6 -2 was due to mahsa situation.

We really have no excuse, you have teams like Japan beating both Germany and Spain. You also had South Korea which is a team we owned for 10+ years beating Portugal and going to next round. At this point r16 needs to become a thing for us for our football to move forward
