The Republic of Ireland have risen five places to 22nd in the FIFA World Rankings released today.

Ireland’s steady climb is due largely to their recent World Cup 1-1 draw with Portugal at Lansdowne Road and their workmanlike 2-0 victory away to Estonia.

The Republic were ranked 57th in November 1998 and today’s position is their highest since McCarthy took charge in 1996.
