Argentina have dropped to third place in the latest FIFA rankings.
The Argentina national team are now third in the FIFA rankings, behind Spain who are first and France who are second. England are behind Argentina in four and Portugal place five in the standings with Brazil six.
Netherlands are seven with Morroco eight, Belgium nine and Germany in ten.
Lionel Scaloni’s team will play Mauritania on Friday and Zambia on Tuesday.
Ranking is not something we should keep in our head now. We have a mountain to climb.
Other than for top 8 seeding, FIFA ranking literally serves no other purpose whatsoever.
Argentina won all 4 trophies they competed in last 5 years, finished 1st place in qualifier with 4 games in spare, thrashed Brazil 4-1 , what else do you need ? beating Belarus & Macedonia?
