I don't really think the FIFA ranking is a fair way to rank the national teams.

Anyway, Portugal was out of the Top 10!! Today it made it back. Now it's in 9th place.

It used to be #11. Because it reached the Euro 2008 quarter-finals it returned to #9, where it was before.

About the top 10 list: 1st time ever Spain is #1. France all the way to the bottom, #10. Germany in 3rd place.

FIFA top 10 ranking:
1) Spain------- 1.557
2) Italy------- 1.404
3) Germany----- 1.364 UP From 5th place to 3rd place
4) Brasil------ 1.344 DOWN 2nd place to 4th place
5) Holland----- 1.299
6) Argentina--- 1.298
7) Croatia----- 1.282
8) Czech Republic
9) Portugal--- 1.104
10) France-- 1.053


- What do you think of the order of the FIFA top 10?
