ZURICH — Belgium ends 2018 atop FIFA’s rankings with World Cup winner France at No. 2.
FIFA says Belgium is a single ranking point — 1,727 to 1,726 — ahead of a French team which won their World Cup semifinal in Russia.
Brazil is No. 3 and World Cup runner-up Croatia is No. 4 in a mostly unchanged monthly ranking.
England and Portugal, which both qualified last month for the UEFA Nations League Final Four tournament, are Nos. 5 and 6.
