The United States Men’s National Team moved up six spots in the latest FIFA rankings as they went undefeated in their last two FIFA World Cup qualifying matches.

After a dismal performance at the end of 2016, the USMNT are trending upwards in the FIFA rankings, as the new set of rankings will be published on April 6.

The Americans come in at 23rd in the world, moving up six spots since the last ranking were revealed.

A 6-0 win over Honduras and a 1-1 draw against Panama on the road were positive results after a show start to World Cup qualifying. The USMNT were led by Clint Dempsey and Christian Pulisic, who both had fantastic performances for the U.S.

Two CONCACAF teams are represented in the top 20, with Mexico (16th) and Costa Rica (20th). The two countries which are sitting in first and second in the CONCACAF World Cup qualifying group.

New Number One

Brazil will move atop the rankings, displacing fellow CONMEBOL member Argentina. The Argentinians held the top spot for a year. A 1-0 shock loss to Bolivia added to the woes of the 2014 World Cup runners-up, as they will also be without Lionel Messi for three more matches. Defending World Champions, Germany, round out the top three.

Some of the countries that saw significant drops were the Netherlands and Uruguay, who both have been struggling as of late. Northern Ireland, Peru and Poland all set records for their best spot ever in the rankings.

The U.S will look to continue their run of form when they play in two more qualifying matches in June, as their opponents will be Trinidad & Tobago and Mexico. They are fourth in the table after four matches played, only one point behind Panama and three behind Costa Rica.

The top three in the group automatically qualify, while the fourth place team will decide their fate in the intercontinental playoff.
