According to FIFA World Cup Ranking, the official awards were not given in 2006; however, FIFA has released the best Movers in the Ranking every year since 2007. For instance, according to a 2012 official press release, the FIFA award for “Mover of the Year” goes to Colombia. Different point systems for ranking points over the years have resulted in a change in calculation methodology for some reason (from 1993 to 2006).

Due to a similar process, the outcome is identical to the FIFA world ranking. In the lead-up to the major tournament, the importance of the orders will grow. As there are no scheduled qualifying games, many teams’ progress will be measured by their standings. Coaches can use a rise in place to boost the confidence of their teams, even though they are frequently criticized for doing so.
