Argentina crowned; But Brazil is number one in the FIFA rankings for this very reason

Argentina and its fans celebrate winning the world title and Brazil top the new FIFA rankings.

If you win the game within the specified time, you will get more points. A shootout win is worth fewer points in the standings. It was this standard that helped Brazil hold onto first place despite being knocked out in the quarterfinals.

Argentina or France, who won the 120 minutes of extra time, would also top the FIFA table.

According to the new ranking, Argentina is second and France is third. Belgium, eliminated in the first round, dropped from second to fourth place. England is fifth. The Netherlands dropped to sixth place.

Croatia, fresh from Qatar with third place, is seventh. Spain has dropped three places to 10th place. Morocco, which staged a series of coups, climbed to 12th place.

In February 2022, Brazil overtook Belgium to take first place. At the World Cup, Brazil won three games, losing to Cameroon in the championship group and Croatia in the quarterfinals.
