    1. A bit early for that, don't you think ? WC 2022 needs to be played first, at least...

  2. I see that CNL i-factor has not changed or corrected. It just increased the perception of the regional bias. With the growing ties between South America and Europe, it just basically guarantee these countries will continue to be predominated in top 25.

  3. Yesterday the August ranking was published. FIFA made two changes to matches originally counting for the June ranking:
    - as noted earlier the friendly Uruguay-Panama (5:0 played on June 11th in Montevideo) had way too much substitutes to be included. For the August ranking this match is now excluded after all;
    - the CONCACAF Nations League match Bermuda - Montserrat, to be played on June 14th, was cancelled following a no-show by Montserrat. In the meantime CONCACAF decided to forfeit this match to Bermuda with a 3:0 win. Following that decision this match is now also included in the August ranking.

    Furthermore FIFA included 4 matches that I excluded:
    2022-07-16 Philippines - Timor-Leste 4:1 friendly in Indonesia
    2022-08-15 Mauritania - Mali 1:0 friendly in Mauritania
    2022-08-18 Mauritania - Mali 1:1 friendly in Mauritania
    2022-08-20 Morocco - Qatar 2:2 friendly in Austria

  4. Did you know this site ? It seems to be an alternate rankings based on a modified elo-formula.

  6. No, I haven't seen this one before. Thanks for pointing it out.
    Seems a bit redundant to me to modify the FIFA formula to try to get a better proxy of the elo-ranking, while the original elo ranking is still around.
    Anyway, it seems the ranking is recently updated. And of course it's not forbidden to compile your own ranking, following your own calculation rules :)
