Germany is leading the Fifa ranking, and is second, with only three points behind, in the Elo ranking, and yet this abysmally large gap between Brazil and the rest? Friendies mean shit, espcecially if you have coaches who put B-teams at front to decide who will get the last remaining slots for the WC (=> Sané). But ok, Brazil get champions...

The big difference will presumably be down to the easier route for Brazil to the final.

Anyway they still say it's pretty unlikely Brazil will win - barely a 1 in 4 chance.

Shouldn't your post have been on my other thread, not this one? Doesn't make much sense here.

At least my country is still at #17 on the world ranking, even though we don't even compete this year. Now that I think about it, that only makes the absence sting more  .

The host in 2022 is barely among the top 100, worse than countries like Faroe Islands, Kyrgyz Republic and Estonia.

Brazil always seen as favorite, ending up being fucked. Though this year They have very easy road to the final.
