ZURICH (AP) - Belgium has kept the No. 1 spot in the FIFA rankings among an unchanged top 18 for February.
With no international matches played by the 20 best teams so far this year, Belgium still leads second-place Argentina and third-place Spain.
World Cup champion Germany is No. 4, followed by Chile and Brazil in a top 10 dominated by European and South American teams.
The three teams which made the biggest moves since the last rankings all come from Asia: Palestine at No. 110 (up 21 spots), Saudi Arabia at No. 55 (up 20 spots), and North Korea at No. 95 (up 18 spots).
