Re­cent wins against El Sal­vador and Cu­ra­cao have cat­a­pult­ed eight-time Caribbean Cup cham­pi­ons T&T back in­to the top 100 of the FI­FA men’s world rank­ings.

T&T jumped four places up from 102nd to 98th and re­turned to the top 100 for the first time in al­most five years and en­sures that the So­ca War­riors, as they are known, hold on­to the CFU’s No 4 spot based on their world rank­ing.

There has been no change in top five in the CFU with Ja­maica at 56th in the world be­ing the top ranked na­tion in front of Haiti ranked at 87th, Cu­raçao at 90th, T&T, and An­tigua & Bar­bu­da at 137th.

Two re­cent loss­es for Bar­ba­dos against Montser­rat and Nicaragua in the Con­ca­caf Na­tions League have ben­e­fit­ted Guyana, and they have re­turned to the CFU top 10, mov­ing up three spots to be ranked at 165th in the world.

Suri­name at 145th in the world rank­ings, St Kitts & Nevis one place low­er, Do­mini­can Re­pub­lic at 151st, and

Puer­to Ri­co at 160th are the na­tions that oc­cu­py po­si­tion six to nine in the CFU.

The Bar­ba­di­ans made the most sig­nif­i­cant drop in the re­gion, mov­ing from 166th in the world to 172nd, and Aru­ba had the biggest jump among the CFU teams, leap­ing six places from 199th to 193rd.

World cham­pi­ons Ar­genti­na re­mained the top na­tion in the world rank­ings af­ter wins against Ecuador and Bo­livia in their 2026 World Cup qual­i­fiers ear­li­er this month.

France, Brazil, Eng­land, and Bel­gium com­plete the top five.
