The FIFA women’s world rankings after 2023 World Cup
World Cup winners Spain have moved from sixth place to second place, while the USWNT drop two places.
Sweden are top of the FIFA women’s world rankings after coming third at the Women’s World Cup Down Under.
Sweden also came third at the 2019 World Cup and reached the semi-final of the Euros last summer.
World Cup winners Spain have moved from sixth to second after their recent success, while runners-up England stay in fourth place.
USA drop two places
The US have been knocked off the top spot of the world rankings for the first time since March 2017 and have fallen to third place following their disappointing World Cup campaign, which saw them eliminated by Sweden in the round of 16.
Andonovski resigns
Vlatko Andonovski resigned as US head coach last week. Assistant coach Twila Kilgore was named interim boss while sporting director Matt Crocker now looks to appoint a new head coach.
Morocco move
Despite finishing fourth at the World Cup, Australia have dropped down from 10th to 11th place. Morocco are the biggest movers and have shot up 14 places to 58th after getting to the knockout stages of the tournament.
