  1. Hi Edgar,

    I'm keeping track of the 'virtual' rankings as Euro2012 progresses. With the second matches in the group stage to be played the next days, it's fun to give a points-prediction of the countries for winning, losing or drawing:

    Country Pts. after rnd. 1 Win Draw Loss
    Spain 1375 1462 1378 1336
    Germany 1331 1424 1326 1277
    England 1134 1245 1135 1080
    Denmark 1133 1225 1121 1070
    Netherlands 1127 1249 1151 1101
    Croatia 1101 1191 1097 1050
    Russia 1041 1095 1026 991
    Italy 1016 1128 1023 971
    France 999 1072 991 951
    Greece 991 1078 992 949
    Portugal 921 1042 937 885
    Sweden 848 951 861 816
    Republic of Ireland 830 943 843 793
    Czech Republic 740 842 750 703
    Ukraine 668 771 686 643
    Poland 568 671 585 542

    1. Hi Hussein,

      Thanks for the info. I was aware Egypt will play with their Olympic team, while Morocco will use only local players.

  3. libya team is not right in this place because won't be play by frist team or A team

    ReplyDelete
  4. just to let you know that Libya will not play with "A" team in Arab Cup. Therefore results will not be counted in Libya ranking. This was officially reported by Libya Footbal Federation and FIFA will remove those libya matches from their website by next monday. Another suggestion, I would recommend you to use countries' flags side by side with thier names, that would be a great addition to your website,easier browsing and more viewers.... keep up the good work and God Bless you.

    1. The matches have been removed from FIFA.com.

      See the preview and probable ranking. Libya will be at least 40th - a new best ever ranking. 39th if Egypt don't defeat CAR.

      Thanks for the suggestion, but I won't be implementing it. I have enough viewers.

  5. hi edgar, first off i love your website, it is very clear and accurate you have done a wonderful job.


    here s my question, in your previous post you predicted algeria to win against mali, but it turns out as the opposite

    how does that affect algeria's ranking ?
    thank you

    greetings from Algeria & Dzfoot

  6. Pretty spectacular that the Europeans just played the tournament that gives them a huge amount of points and Uruguay has remained 3rd.

    Only Spain and Germany are on top of them. What ever happens in the final.

    1. Italy will jump Uruguay if they win without needing a shootout.

      Delete
    2. No mate.

      The FIFA ranking prediction tool is quite clear. Even if Italy had one in normal time they couldn't pass Uruguay.

      Gotta say it's a great tool that FIFA have finally made available to fans.

      Delete
    3. The tool is wrong. It doesn't have a way to factor in Italy's extra points for winning the shootout against England.

      Easiest way for me to prove this is for you to check Italy's final total with the tool now, and then see when the ranking comes out that Italy have more points.

      Delete
    4. Penalty wins count as draws mate.

      If you go read the FIFA ranking procedures you'll see.

      But, doesn't matter now anyway.

      Delete
    5. Penalty wins DO NOT count as a draw... mate.

      If a team wins on penaltys they get awarded 2 points for the formula (3= win, 1=draw or losing on penaltys, 0=loss).

      So Lorris is right about the FIFA tool mate.

    6. What he said.

      Well, everything except Lorris. My name is Lorric! :)
