The United States are still considered one of the better teams in the world. The USMNT sit 23rd in the October FIFA World Rankings that were released today, down one spot from September. There’s a new number one, as Belgium broke the tie it held with France in September to claim the top spot for themselves.
In CONCACAF, Mexico is still the highest-rated team at #16 (down 1 from last month), but the USMNT’s #23 ranking is good enough for second in the region. Costa Rica (#37), Jamaica (#53), and Honduras (#62) all held their spots from September.
