Belgium have climbed to the top of the FIFA World Rankings alongside France, the 1st time the top spot is being shared in the table’s 25-year history
A pair of wins for the Red Devils (1st, up 1), including their first in the UEFA Nations League over Iceland (36th, down 4), has brought them level with Les Bleus (1st, unchanged) on 1,729 points.
Brazil remains on third place while World Cup finalists Croatia still rank fourth. The only other change in the top ten sees Denmark (10th, down 1) slip below Spain (9th, unchanged). The rankings of the top 10 countries are as follows:
Argentina and Germany still stay out of top 10, with the latter climbing to 12th, as Italy surpass Peru to rank 20th. The rankings from the 11th to the 20th are as follows:
Outside of the top ten, two Nations League wins for Ukraine (29th, up 6) over Czech Republic (47th, down 3) and Slovakia (26th, unchanged) means that they are the month’s biggest mover.

Why is the top spot being shared? Didn’t France just win the World Cup? I have nothing against Belgium but they can occupy the number 2 spot. That’s no disgrace. The French have earned the top spot by winning the World Cup and beat Belgium in the process. Give credit where credit is due FIFA
