isto tako bih je 25, a nikad dosad nije bila na nekom natjecanju, ali slazem se da je dobro sto je promijenio nacin odovanja jer nije bilo normalno da su ekvador, sad, maxico medju 10

Top 10 je po meni realno, a ovo iza...

A sto ne bi bili medju prvih 20 !?

ovo je smjesno, jedna rusija je 24. sa 909 bodova,  a BIH je 25 sa 905!

a zna li itko kakav je točno način bodovanja? koliko bodova donosi pobjeda nad brazilom a koliko nad bih, koliko vrijedi pobjeda u natjecateljskoj a koliko u prijateljskoj utakmici? za koji vremenski period vrijedi ova tablica, ovaj poredak? jesu li to rezultati u zadnjih 2, 3 ili 5 godina?

Lista je stvarno čudna. Rumunjska na 13. mjestu, a nisu bili na velikom natjecanju od Ep 2000.

ovdje se ne racunaju bodovi po tome koliko je jedna momcad bila na velikim natjecanjima nego po njihovim rezultatima u poslijednjih neznam koliko godina...prije je u bodovanje ulazio i rezultat kojim je neka momcad pobjedjivala ali sad je sustav bodovanja promijenjen poslije sp-a u njemackoj....mislim da sad nije svejedno dali si dobio 100. ili 10. reprezentaciju svjeta nego mislimda sad dobivas vise bodova ako pobijedis neku bolje rangirnu reprezentaciju,ali nisam siguran....a i ovo za rumunje,oni jako dobro stoje u svojoj kvalifikacijskoj grupi,a to sto nisu bili na veliom natjecanju od 2000. nemora znaciti nista...pa i hrvatska ide redovito an svako natjecanje i redovito ispada u prvoj fazi pa ans evo opet na 6. mjestu,a englezi,bivsi svjetski prvaci,na svako natjecanju dodju do cetvrtfinala pa opet nisu ni medju top 10 nego su 11....

The system, like the previous ones, is extremely similar to that of a league, though with changes made to ensure that it is still representative of the teams' performance despite playing differing numbers of matches per annum, and the differing strength of opposition that teams have to face. The factors taken into account are as follows:

• Match result
• Match status
• Opposition strength
• Regional strength

Teams' actual scores are a result of the average points gained over each calendar year; matches from the previous four years are considered, with more weight being given to recent ones. Teams must have played at least 5 matches within the last twelve months to gain ranking points.

[edit] Win, draw or defeat

In previous years a complicated system of points allocation was used, depending on how strong the opponent was, and how large the loss margin, which allowed weaker losing teams to gain points when playing a much stronger opposition, if they managed to put up a decent match. With the new system, the points allocation is simpler: three points for a win, one point for a draw, and zero points for a loss, in line with most league systems around the world.

In the event of a match being decided by a penalty shootout, the winning team receives two points, and the losing team one point.

Result	Points
Win (no penalty shootout)	3
Draw	1
Loss (no penalty shootout)	0
Win (penalty shootout)	2
Loss (penalty shootout)	1

[edit] Match status

Different matches have different importance to teams, and FIFA has tried to respect this by using a weighting system, where the most significant matches are in the World Cup finals ^[10], and the lowest weighted are friendly matches. FIFA states that it wishes to recognise that friendlies are still important, since they make up half of the competitive matches counted in the rankings.^[11] FIFA also stated, however, that it did not plan to make any adjustment for teams that qualify directly for major tournaments.^[12]

The match status multipliers are as follows:

Match status	Multiplier
Friendly match	x 1.0
FIFA World Cup and Continental cup qualifiers	x 2.5
Continental cup and Confederations Cup finals	x 3.0
World Cup finals match	x 4.0

[edit] Opponent strength

Obviously, a win against a very highly ranked opponent is a considerably greater achievement than a win against a low-rated opponent, so the strength of the opposing team is a factor.

The new system uses an opposition strength factor based on team rankings. The previous system was based on points difference.

The formula used is:

Teams ranked 150th and below are assigned the minimum multiplier of 0.50.

• Example 1: the opposition team is currently ranked 8th in the world:

so the opposition strength multiplier is 1.92

• Example 2: the opposition team is currently ranked 125th in the world:

so the opposition strength multiplier is 0.75

• Example 3: the opposition team is currently ranked 188th in the world:

Below 150th, so the opposition strength multiplier is the minimum 0.50

[edit] Regional strength

In addition to the opposition strength multiplier, FIFA considers the relative strength of entire confederations in the calculation. Each confederation is assigned a weighting between 0.85 and 1.0, based on the relative performance of the confederations in qualifying for the last three World Cups. After the 2006 World Cup, the weightings are:

Confederation	Weighting
UEFA (Europe)	1.00
CONMEBOL (South America)	0.98
AFC (Asia)	0.85
CAF (Africa)	0.85
CONCACAF (North and Central America and Caribbean)	0.85
OFC (Oceania)	0.85

The multiplier used in the calculation is the average of the regional strength weighting of the two teams:

[edit] Assessment period

Matches played over the last four years (48 months) are included in the calculation, but there is a weighting to put more emphasis on recent results. Previously an eight year period was used. The date weighting is as follows:

Date of match	Multiplier
Within the last 12 months	x 1.0
12-24 months ago	x 0.5
24-36 months ago	x 0.3
36-48 months ago	x 0.2

A team must play at least 5 matches per year to be included in the rankings.

[edit] Ranking formula

The final ranking points figure is multiplied by 100 and rounded to the nearest whole number.

[edit] Examples

The following examples use these hypothetical teams and confederations, and assume the games are played within the last 12 months:

• Amplistan is currently ranked 2nd in the world and is a member of confederation XYZ (weighting 1.0);
• Bestrudia is currently ranked 188th in the world and is a member of confederation ABC (weighting 0.88);
• Conesto is currently ranked 39th in the world and is a member of confederation QRS (weighting 0.98);
• Delphiz is currently ranked 30th in the world and is a member of confederation HIJ (weighting 0.94).

A friendly match is played between Amplistan and Bestrudia. Amplistan wins 2-1.

Match	Team	Result points	Match status	Opposition strength	Regional strength	Ranking points
Amplistan vs. Bestrudia (friendly) Result: 2-1	Amplistan Bestrudia	3 0	1.0 1.0	0.50 1.98	0.94 0.94	141 0

Bestrudia gets no ranking points because it lost the game, so all factors are multiplied by zero.

Amplistan's 141 ranking points are calculated like this:

• 3 points for the win;
• multiplied by 1.0 for match status (friendly match);
• multiplied by 0.50 for opposition strength (Bestrudia is ranked 188th, so it has the minimum 0.50 weighting);
• multiplied by 0.94 for regional strength (the average of the weightings for the two teams' confederations);
• multiplied by 100.
