Official FIFA World Rankings
FIFA's official ranking system for nations was officially introduced in 1992. Initially it was a rather simplistic system, in which a win gave a team 3 points whilst a draw gave the team 1 point. This created a number of problems, based mainly around the fact that it didn't take into account that some countries continually played weaker nations and as a result would constantly rank higher than more accomplished sides.
