Uzbekistan moved from the 83rd place to the 82nd place in the new FIFA ranking. Uzbekistan has 401 points, or 13 points more compared to July.

Uzbekistan is on the sixth place in Asia after Japan (15 place/918 points), Australia (22/837), South Korea (33/745), Iran (53/559) and China (69/464).

There has been a change in the leadership of the FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking, with the Netherlands ending Spain’s reign of more than a year at the summit to claim top spot for the first time ever.

The Oranje thus profited from Spain’s defeat by Italy – in a friendly that cost the world and European champions valuable points – to become only the seventh team (after Argentina, Brazil, France, Germany, Italy and Spain) to sit atop the global ladder.
