England have moved up to third in the latest FIFA men’s rankings to claim their joint-highest position since the rankings began.
It is the first time England have been in the top three since September 2012 and have only ever been in that position for two months since the rankings were introduced in 1992.
Scotland have moved up four places to rank 45th, closely followed by Northern Ireland, who also rose four spots to rank 47th in the world.
Wales remain in 19th, while Republic of Ireland have dropped to 50.
The top two positions stay unchanged with Belgium the highest-ranked team in the world and Brazil placing second, ahead of England.
