World and European champions Spain retained first place in the football rankings issued on Wednesday by the ruling body FIFA.
Freshly-crowned Asian champions Japan returned into the top 20 while African champions Egypt took a deep plunge in the list.
Spain leads an all but unchanged top 10 with 1,887 points from the Netherlands (1,723) and Germany (1,485).
Brazil (1,446), Argentina (1,367), England (1,195), Uruguay (1,152), Portugal (1,090), Croatia (1,075) and Greece (1,016) complete the top teams, with Greece moving up from 11th.
Japan rose from 29th to 17th by virtue of a record fourth Asian title won on Saturday in Qatar. Uzbekistan were the biggest risers thanks to their semi-final berth at the event, up to 77 from 108.
