About me:
Software engineer, happily unmarried and non-religious. You won't find me on Twitter or other so called social media. Dutchman, joined the blog in March 2018.
Can you have fifa ranking for women?
ReplyDeleteTheya llreaey have that, on the same website
ReplyDeleteI see that I-factor for Concacaf Nations League has been decreased to 15, instead of 25 in the previous season. Wonder why is that, since it is still serves as Gold Cup qualification.
ReplyDeleteThe i-factor for the group stage of the nations league (both Uefa and Concacaf), has always been 15, in the previous edition too, like the statement in the official Fifa pdf describes. 25 is used only for games in the finals.
DeleteIn the group stage of the last Concacaf Nations League (2018) they used an I-factor of 25 due to what Fauzan says.
DeleteYes, the matches in the previous edition of the CNL all had an I-factor of 25, in the groups and in the Final Four.
DeleteI didn't know that, thank you for pointing that out. So looks like they have changed the rule before (without fixing the written pdf), but now they have forgotten to apply the unwritten rule strictly following that is published in the site. Let's see if someone in Concacaf will complain and they will fix it in the next ranking.
DeleteWell the change in 2018/2019 was logical, that tournament did serve as qualification for a continental final tournament. So it should have an I-factor of 25.
DeleteThis decision now makes no sense to me, as it is exactly the same situation.
Even if I didn't know that, I agree it's logical. Contrary to the UNL, the CNL is the only way for the qualification to the Gold Cup. This is why I think a mistake by the FIFA office could be the easiest explanation.
DeleteYou are right Ed! However, at autumn 2018 they played qualification matches for the first concacaf NL edition. Those matches also served as qualifiers for the gold cup 2019, because 10 best ranked teams were selected to participate at gold cup. Nevertheless, those matches were graduated by I factor 15. Then NL matches 2019 and finals 2021 were graduated by 25 and now exact competition was valued with factor 15! Total mess!
DeleteTurns out the Finalissima had an I-factor of 10, which makes sense to me: that game was a "glorified friendly".
ReplyDeleteAs expected.
DeleteIndeed, the CNL group-matches are this time calculated with an I-factor of 15 (instead of 25 in the previous edition). Don't know why, this tournament still serves as qualification for the Gold Cup, just like the previous one.
ReplyDeleteFIFA excluded and I included:
2022-05-12 Bahamas - Turks and Caicos islands 4:2 friendly in Nassau, Bahamas
2022-05-14 Bahamas - Turks and Caicos islands 1:2 friendly in Nassau, Bahamas
2022-05-24 Mozambique - Eswatini 0:1 friendly in Matola, Mozambique
2022-05-28 Timor-Leste - Nepal 2:2 friendly in Doha, Qatar
2022-06-01 Syria - Tajikistan 2:0 friendly in Dubai, United Arab Emirates
2022-06-03 Oman - Nepal 2:0 friendly in Doha, Qatar
2022-06-05 USA - Uruguay 0:0 friendly in Kansas City, USA
FIFA included and I excluded:
2022-05-01 Panama - El Salvador 2:3 friendly in Cary, USA. Reportedly this match was abandoned after 68 minutes because of bad weather.
For the USA v Uruguay it was seemingly because Uruguay used 7 substitutes, which is obviously (!!!) a lot more wrong than using 11 substitutes on 11 June against Jamaica! :-(
ReplyDeleteUruguay vs Panama isn't international A match?
ReplyDeletebecause they used 11 substitutes.
Indeed, FIFA works in mysterious ways: in the Uruguay-Panama friendly (5-0 in Montevideo on June 11th) Uruguay had 11 substitutions and Panama 8. Reason enough to exclude this match according to their own rules.
ReplyDeleteThe published ranking showed otherwise though...
Hi Ed, do you have some update of UNL?
