FIFA Ranking 2025

FIFA World Rankings 2025: FIFA Men's World Ranking is a ranking system for men's national football teams. The men's national teams of FIFA, the world governing organization of football, are ranked according to their game outcomes, with the highest ranked teams being placed at the top. In December 1992, FIFA World rankings were first introduced, and eight teams, which were at the top, were Spain, France, Argentina, England, Portugal, Brazil and the Netherlands. Brazil has held the number one FIFA ranking for the longest time. Spain currently holds the top position in the FIFA World Ranking for men's national football teams.

The scoring for all full international matches that FIFA recognizes is determined using a points system. Numerous changes have been made to the FIFA ranking system in response to complaints that the previous methodology did not accurately reflect the relative strengths of the national teams. The Elo rating system used in chess has been incorporated into the FIFA ranking system's current iteration from August 16, 2018.

The FIFA ranking 2025 is currently sponsored by Coca-Cola. FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking is also used. Coca-Cola also sponsors the women's team.

FIFA maintains that the FIFA World rankings provide "a valid metric for comparing national A-teams" and are used to rate the development and existing skill of the national football teams of its member nations. They are used in the computation or as the sole basis for seeding tournaments.

A new model for determining the FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking went into effect in August 2018 after being approved by the FIFA Council after extensive testing and analysis. FIFA created a new version of the World Ranking that they called "SUM," which relies on adding/subtracting points won or lost for a game to/from the prior point totals rather than averaging game points over a specified time period as in the previous version.

The FIFA World Ranking compares the 211 teams that make up the FIFA association. The number of games a club has won and how "important" those successes were, such as in big tournaments or against tough opponents, are among the criteria used to calculate the FIFA ranking. However, top-tier teams do not automatically qualify for the World Cup. Instead, since each region (also known as a "confederation") only has a limited number of slots, ranks are utilized for seeding in regional qualifying events. This implies that many lower-ranked teams ultimately qualify for the World Cup instead of higher-ranked teams. The most notable illustration of this for 2022 is Italy's national squad, which finished sixth and didn't make it.
