The 2012 June ranking will be published on 6 June. The official deadline for matches is 31 May. However, in the article connected to the May FIFA Ranking it says:
The June edition will undoubtedly bring more movement with it, as friendlies are played in Europe to warm up for UEFA EURO 2012 and another batch of 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™ qualifiers influence the calculations.
The first qualifiers will take place on 1 June, after the official deadline, so for the June ranking I will use Sunday, 3 June 2012, as deadline for matches. Not sure if FIFA will do the same.
Spain's top spot in danger. And the danger is coming from... Uruguay. La Celeste will certainly climb to 2nd with a win against Venezuela on home ground and at least a draw against Russia in Moscow, but in order to grab the top spot they need to defeat Russia and also Spain to lose their 3 friendlies (Serbia, Korea Republic and China).
Portugal will drop at least 1 spot, even if they win their friendlies against Macedonia and Turkey.

Uruguay is second?? wtf!!!
ReplyDeleteYes! Uruguay is currently one of the best national teams in the world. They went through dificulties in the beginning of the 21st century but they regained their true force like old times when they were best team in the world. from 1920 to 1980 they were the best and now they are trying to do it again! :)
DeleteWell, Montserrat, San Marino and Turks and Caicos Islands will drop to joint 206th after Andorra's 0-0 draw with Azerbaijan.
ReplyDeleteAccording to the FIFA site, Portugal will drop nearly 200pts. Looks like they're going to get dumped out of the top 10.
ReplyDeleteAnd a well derserved dumping at that.Doesnt help when Christiano Ronaldo is continuing his consistent play with the national side.
DeleteOn a positive this will definately help other teams in the chase for a World Cup seed
