Looks like a jump to about 25th (some S America games pending)

**SwanVsDalton** · 14/10/2011, 10:41 AM

Some jump for Wales, up 45 places. Now the highest ranked home nation after England.

**Stuttgart88** · 14/10/2011, 1:48 PM

Guys, in the UEFA ranking / play-off seeding context, which of our 2010/11 friendly results would have contributed to our seeding? was the win over Italy critical? Was the Carling Cup important?

**punkrocket** · 14/10/2011, 2:01 PM

I see Ukraine & Poland way down in the rankings due I suppose to no games, how does this affect them long term say for the next competition? Bit of a disadvantage for them even if they do get a bye ball through to the tournament they host.

UEFA ranking doesn't take any friendlies into account, only qualifier and finals games for Euro 08, WC 2010 and Euro 12.

So does the play offs be included in the UEFA ranking? .... and if they do ... could we get ahead of France in 12th?

They are included but our potential points can't catch France.

**tetsujin1979** · 19/10/2011, 9:21 AM

Confirmed - 25th in latest rankings: http://www.fifa.com/worldranking/ran...ble/index.html

**Cymro** · 19/10/2011, 2:59 PM

45 Wales 619 45 245

They've missed a '1' in front of our ranking number, surely?

Seems incredible that we were 117th just two months ago. In that time we even managed to lose a game. Quite unbelieveable.

**geysir** · 19/10/2011, 3:04 PM

Wales are back with a bullet, up 45 places since last month.

**thejollyrodger** · 19/10/2011, 5:49 PM

Up to 25th is great !! we were in the 30's for ages. If we get to the euro finals it will do us wonders

**Kingdom** · 19/10/2011, 6:22 PM

The JollyRodger is back! If lopez makes a post I'll be looking out for a few fellows on horseback.

Edit, actually just realised that's been a semi-regular occurance over the summer. Who was the other "Shels" fan from wayback that stopped posting?

It was Slash/Ed

It's easy to rocket up the rankings when you are very low down as you inevitable win and it's more than likely against higher ranked opposition. Look at Montenegro.

The hard bit is breaking the 20's-30's and teens.

Well done Wales.

**dantheman** · 19/10/2011, 6:55 PM

If we beat Estonia home and away (!) in the qualifiers, we'll be on 914 points. That looks like top 20.

All combos:

2W (914) - currently 19 in rankings
1W1D (864) - currently 22 in rankings
1W1L (839) - currently 24 in rankings
2D (813) - currently 25 in rankings
1D1L (788) - currently 26 in rankings
2L (763) - currently 29 in rankings

The order of victories does not seem to matter (ie two away wins in the playoffs is the same movement as two home wins)
