World Cup winner Argentina have taken the top spot in the FIFA rankings for the first time in six years.

Argentina's two wins in friendlies last month ended the one-year run at the top for Brazil, who lost to Morocco 2-1 and fell to No. 3.

France, the World Cup runners-up rose to No. 2 as they won back-to-back European Championship qualifiers against No. 6 Netherlands and Ireland.

Belgium stayed at No. 4, with England next after two wins including a victory against the number 8 ranked side Italy.

Croatia are ranked seventh, followed by Italy, Portugal and Spain, who complete the Top 10.
