The Argentine national team is the current world champion, and to the joy of its people, they will tour the province of Buenos Aires with the trophy in their hands. Surely the festivities will last until night, since this achievement that transcends sports beyond what happened inside the Lusail stadium against France last Sunday.

What Argentina achieved in the World Cup held in Qatar is something historic, since they had to wait a long 36 years to lift the famous trophy again. Without going any further and to take even more dimension, none of the members of the squad led by Lionel Messi had been born when Diego Maradona was enshrined in Mexico 1986, and the coaching staff were just children.

However, and despite touching the sky with their hands after winning the World Cup, not everything is rosy for the Argentine National Team. It is that FIFA, who organizes each tournament and decides the future of many things in this regard, is preparing a slap in the face for the albiceleste. According to Esteban Edul in TyC Sports, his result in Qatar 2022 will not be enough for him to reach the top of the national team ranking.

It will be announced in a few days, and although it will surpass Belgium in the table, it will not be enough to place itself at the top, so Brazil will remain in that place. It is that following the FIFA results weighting protocol, which is governed only by points and matches won, will not be enough, after losing a match (Saudi Arabia) and drawing another two in regular time (Netherlands and France ).

How would the FIFA ranking for December be?

Continuing with the information from the sports channel, Brazil will continue to be the leader of the table, completing the podium with Argentina itself and then France, who fell to the albiceleste in the decisive duel. The biggest jump will be that of Morocco, which will go from position 22 to 11, after having reached the semifinals. Then follow Belgium (4th), England (5th), the Netherlands (6th), Croatia (7th), Italy (8th), Portugal (9th) and Spain (10th).
