Football Team Rank in World Cup 2022
Every team left in the FIFA World Cup has been ranked, and only two countries are better than the England Team.
From 32 to 16, then to 8. This is how knockout football usually works and how the World Cup of 2022 has gone.
They listed the other teams below for their likelihood of winning the tournament. Some of the previous rankings are higher than eight because the last time we did this, we ranked the 16 teams left.
1. Brazil (previously 4th)
They beat South Korea with style, joy, and dancing, but what will scare the other teams left in this World Cup is how they scored their three goals that weren’t penalties and how many chances they created afterward. When going ahead, no other team is as fast and skilled, and Neymar has changed his game to be the wiser, older head which controls the play from a deeper position. A feeling that many people on their team are getting a boost from the big stage and the shirt’s long history. Also, only a few people know that xG against has the toughest defense in the competition.

2. France (previously 2nd)
After the unpredictable team stage, the round of 16 was when strong teams showed off their skills and put up scores that stood out. So, what do we make of France’s two-goal win over Poland, which looked like one of the weakest teams to move on? On paper, it wasn’t as clear-cut a win as Portugal’s or England team, but Mbappe’s growing fearsomeness put them just ahead of the team they’ll face next. It is the second hardest match to predict in the quarterfinals after Argentina vs. Netherlands. For once in knockout football, the A-List team will have to play their best to beat England.
3. England Team (previously 1st)
Someone has beaten Senegal again imposingly. Like Switzerland for Portugal, Senegal was a good team made to look bad by its opponents. They have to worry about their biggest World Cup game in 20 years. How Gareth Southgate is remembered will depend significantly on how England does against France, both in terms of the score and how well they play. It’s too close to call because if England Team can keep Kylian Mbappe quiet, they’ve shown they have the grit and talent to compete with the best. Is this when they return to what they’ve always done, or will they show their fans that England is finally ready to take this competition seriously?
4. Portugal (previously 6th)
Portugal’s 5-0 win over Switzerland was a lot like Aston Villa’s 4-0 win over Brentford after they fired Steven Gerrard. They scored three goals in the first 14 minutes of that game and won 4-0. Was this because of Cristiano Ronaldo or, more accurately, because he wasn’t there? Gonzalo Ramos, who took his place, scored their first goal with a fantastic finish. He scored a hat trick. Even though Switzerland looked terrible, they were good; Morocco will be a different and possibly more complicated challenge.
5. Argentina (previously 5th)
There’s a growing feeling that Lionel Messi and his many fans are all pulling for this team to do well. Can they give their talisman’s life the happy ending it deserves? After their close win against Australia, who almost sent their round of 16 games into overtime, they will have to find new gear. Even with all the talk about Messi and how he can do nothing for 30 minutes and then score a beautiful goal like the one that put Argentina ahead against Australia, their defense may be their best asset. They had not given up a plan since their first game when they gave up two to Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
6. Netherlands (previously 10th)
At the start of the tournament, the team’s play was all over the place, but now it looks like Louis van Gaal did a masterful job of “rope-a-dope.” They did a number on a tricky USA team by setting traps and catching them off guard, and Cody Gapko, who is leading the line, is arguably the biggest surprise of this World Cup. The next game, against Argentina, could be exhilarating, and it would be silly to write off van Gaal at this point. At worst, it’s a coin toss.
7. Morocco (previously 9th)
We shouldn’t be surprised that Qatar’s biggest overachievers beat Spain, which hasn’t won a knockout game at the World Cup since 2010 final. Their spot in the quarterfinals has much more to do with how well they played under Walid Regragui than how poorly their opponents did. It was a big surprise that they made it this far, but their toughness in midfield and defense, Hakim Ziyech’s threat up front, and how they handled their penalty kicks suggest they could go even further.
8. Croatia (previous position: 7th)
Japan gave them a hard time, but they stuck with it and made it through, thanks to some bad penalties from their opponents. At this point in a tournament, all that matters is staying alive, but it would be hard to find a less convincing win than this one. Croatia knows how to handle knockout football, especially games that last longer than 90 minutes, but that won’t be enough to get them past Brazil on Saturday.
