Germany have also risen up the rankings to second, with Sweden falling one place to third.
The United States remain top – they will play England in a sell-out friendly at Wembley in October.

France, Netherlands and Spain have all fallen in the top 10, with Canada also dropping to seventh.
Brazil have held strong at ninth and North Korea the same at 10th. But Norway and Italy have fallen to 13th and 16th respectively after both exiting Euro 2022 at the group stage. Denmark have also dropped down to 17th, Austria breaking into the top 20 at the expense of Switzerland.
