NEW FIFA RANKINGS OUT:
Oh dear, NZ down ten places to 67 - but still, not far behind Scotland and Poland - would've been unthinkable in the 1980's when those sides were strong. Mighty Cape Verde Islands at 44, ahead of all three mentioned and ahead of Australia 53 !!!

Panama 35 Honduras 40 Mexico 21 (only down 1)
France 25 Greece 12 Bosnia 18 Republic of Ireland 59 Sometimes just doesn't make much sense....
The result of two losses (UAE and NC) and playing bugger all games. In saying that Cape Verde might drop a bit now with their expulsion from the African WC Group qualifiers for fielding an ineligible player. Something Africa excels at!
