Other notable movements include Germany rising two places to No. 3 after their Nations League final appearance. England remains at No. 4, while Sweden drops two spots to No. 5. Brazil and France exchange positions at Nos. 6 and 7, respectively. Japan holds steady at No. 8, North Korea climbs one spot to No. 9, and Canada falls to No. 10.
