Final Standings In The World Cup

I really liked the New Zeland team.... Hope to see them do even better in 2014.... They played with more heart than Italy, France, England all put together...

That's what you get with lesser teams reid, like my own northern ireland, theres little quality, but you can't rubbish their efforts and passion to do well for their country.
We've had some tremendous results. well done kiwi's

Rob12 (Manchester United) 2 years ago

LMAO France are 21st in Fifa ranking now

StefanJay (Arsenal) 2 years ago

It does look kinda odd seeing some of the big names down so far in the list, but that's what this WC was all about. Small nations stepping up their game and some larger sides failing to adjust. I have to say I'm proud of Uruguay and I'm not even remotely south american, they really deserve it and will get better over time.

Seeing USA above England gives me a certain satisfaction, but I do think England are a better side overall. They've had a bad run of games, but they have all the pieces and just need to put them together into a solid tournament team. I think this will wake them up and they can return to winning ways

I guess everything looks right. But I would put mexico and s. Korea ahead of usa and england

BigShel (Philadelphia Union) 2 years ago

South Korea yes Mexico never.

Joeymac (Manchester United) 2 years ago

Agree with bigshel, south korea could be higher than us, they've proven themselves, but mexico.... No! It's not that they're necessarily worse than us, it's just that they are our rivals hahaha. I guess its because we finished first in our group

HangTime (Chelsea) 2 years ago

Lol.... Either way is fine. "shrug"

LumpOfCelery (Chelsea) 2 years ago

ManUK (Manchester United) 2 years ago

Airmilton (Arsenal) 2 years ago

Anfieldhero (Liverpool) 2 years ago

7 million pounds and this is what he could muster.... Sven atleast managed quater finals. Cappello is crap!

Daniel4ing (Feyenoord) 2 years ago

New zealand should have been higher in my opinion. The only team that didn't lose a game

SergioRamos (Liverpool) 2 years ago

I'm curious what kind of odds you would have gotten on New Zealand finishing above Italy and France?

Tony (footytube staff) 2 years ago

It does look an odd league table, when you see some great names way down the list, like northern ireland.... Lmao

Anfieldhero (Liverpool) 2 years ago

France.... 28th. No wonder! I thought Swiss should have been slightly higher

Soccergal293 (Barcelona) 2 years ago

LOL why is New Zealand Bold? I'm just happy that Australia beat New Zealand We also beat quite a few other teams.... It was obvious that North Korea would come last LOL

Juno (AC Milan) 2 years ago

How come Australia is still higher than NZ? Thought the overall performance was a better show by NZ?

Rob12 (Manchester United) 2 years ago

What are you on about North Korea came first
