TUNISIA RANKED 21 IN THE WORLD
WOW 21. Though I like this number I would love to see the formula. We were recently beaten 1-0 by Serbia and Montenegro who are ranked 46 and had the meanest defence in world cup qualifying only conceding one goal to Spain.
The teams TUNISIA WILL BE PLAYING IN THE WORLD CUP ARE RANKED AS FOLLOWS:
SPAIN: 5
SAUDIA ARABIA: 34
UKRAINE: 41
Well Tunisia is 21. Does anyone ever speak of them as much as that ranking would warrant? No , however this could change after a strong showing in June.
Egypt may have won the African cup which boosted them to 18 but they have been beaten about 5 months ago by Tunisia 2-1 in Egypt. Nigeria is 12 but they needed a penalty shootout to dispose of Tunisia in the african Nations Cup.
OTHER THOUGHTS on the rankings:
Ivory Coast is a force to be reconed with. In Drogba, Eboue, and Toure who play in the English league I see That 3 out of their 11 are top , top class players . The rest are probably really good Im just not too familiar with them. Their Goalie John Jaque Tizzie however plays in the Tunisian League and I hear he is simply fantastic
Czech Republic are beasts at the number 2 spot and should be respected alot more then they are

The Fifa ranking is really not about who is better NOW, its about who have been better in the past and in present time. Look:
The factors used are:
* Friendly match x 1.00
* Continental championship preliminary x 1.50
* World Cup preliminary match x 1.50
* Continental championship finals match x 1.75
* FIFA Confederations Cup match x 1.75
* World Cup finals match x 2.00
This means that qualifying matches are weighted 50% higher than friendlies, continental final round matches 75 % higher and matches during World Cup finals twice as much.
