New FIFA World Rankings

[kato]

You forgot that Egypt have actually won the african cup the last 3 times in a row (2006 2008 2010) beating teams that went to the world cup like algeria 4-0, cameroon 4-2, nigeria 3-1, and ghana 1-0 along the way. Also, since ghana did great in the world cup and egypt beat it in the 2010 CAF final we got even more points. So yeah, we deserve to be 9th, not to mention that we beat Italy in the last confederation cup and brazil barely won against us 4-3 by a penalty in the last minutes.

i still don't care esssam...

fuck egypt

Points are earned for every game or tourney the teams played. Once you earn the points you don't lose them. It will take years for a team not winning to drop significantly in the rankings.

Yes, they have won it 3 times in a row but the rankings only take into account the last four years (and so only the 2010 and 2008 count towards the ranking, the 2010 campaign will push out the 2006 win). Anyway, welcome to the forum esssam - good first post and Go Egypt!

US being 13th is a joke too. Every country on the list can beat them.
