The other World Cup rankings


STOP PRESS 28 June: Just discovered a far better version of this at Who Should I Cheer For!

The heroic performances of developing countries in the World Cup deserve closer attention; this chart highlights the supporters' handicaps, prioritised by life expectancy. Red boxes denote the worst/smallest.

Click the chart for the full-size version.

(Knocked together during England's dire second half against Paraguay, if you were wondering.)

Where did you get your team rankings from? They're not FIFA's...

Never trusted FIFA's ratings -they're already a nonsense. These are the average from the odds at ten online betting organisations, at the start of the competition. I reckon the people trying to make money out of this are the ones to listen to.
