Despite 3 big wins in April and June, the USWNT drop a spot.
The United States Women’s National Team are unbeaten in their last seven matches, but that wasn’t enough to rise in the world rankings. Today, FIFA released the June 2024 Women’s Ranking, and the USWNT dropped one spot to 5th. It furthers the worst ranking the USWNT have had since the rankings began in 2003.
The USWNT were 4th in the world in the March 2024 Women’s Ranking, and went on to defeat Japan and Canada (on penalties) to win the 2024 SheBelieves Cup. In recent friendlies earlier this month again South Korea, the USWNT held clean sheets in two wins. Those matches only added 4.75 points to their total, which wasn’t enough to hold off Germany for 4th.
Spain remains the #1 team in the world, but there was a lot of movement among the rest of the Top 10. The top 10 teams in the world, in order: Spain, France England, Germany, USA, Sweden, Japan, Canada, Brazil, and North Korea.
The next matches for the USWNT will be against Mexico (29th) and Costa Rica (44th) in what will be Olympic send-off matches for the team in mid-July. They will then head to France for the 2024 Summer Olympics, where they will play Zambia (64th), Germany (4th), and Australia (12th) in the group stage.
