They are currently in their joint-highest position in the FIFA rankings. England team went to third place nine years before and now after a long wait, they have claimed this spot again. Gareth Southgate’s England national football team performed emphatically well in the Euro 2020, where he takes his team to the final of the tournament. However, they couldn’t win the trophy but the fans, as well as experts, have noticed improvements in the team from the previous years. England has surpassed Hugo Lloris’ (current French team captain) France national football team and jumped to third place in the FIFA rankings. France has now moved to the fourth position following their performance in the Euro 2020, where they were fired by Switzerland in the penalties in Round of 16.
With a total of 1832 points, Belgium continues to dominate the FIFA rankings leaving behind Brazil on second with a total of 1812 points. England who moved up to third now has 1755 points, one point above the 2018 FIFA World Cup winners.
