This is a more accurate method of judging skill of countries in any particular sport. Peru was leading for most of this year, Brazil narrowly leads them right now.

1. Brazil
2. Peru
3. Uruguay
4. Portugal
5. Croatia
6. Spain
7. Chile
8. Iceland
9. Switzerland

*alternative flags often used
*non-FIFA countries and years 1950-2017 under construction, should be fixed by end of 2018
*1950-2017 are still mostly accurate except when a new country first joins the rankings
I have these for basketball as well, but it is under construction. So similar errors for newly entered countries exist, other than that it is pretty accurate.
