FIFA Ranking: December 2010 preview (III)

Finally, I found time to include the knock-out stages for the Caribbean Championship, Gulf Cup and CECAFA Cup. The semifinals of the AFF Cup will take place after the deadline, thus I didn't include them.

Only 32 teams will play matches before the deadline. For the other 175 the total points for December won't change. Further more, the top 42 is already set, since only Cuba's total could rise to 627 points, not enough to overtake Hungary (42nd, with 632 points).

Next update: December 10th, 2010.
