Brazil have been rewarded for their recent Confederations Cup win by reclaiming top spot in the Fifa world rankings.
The Brazilians beat USA 3-2 in the final in June to end Spain's one-year reign at the top of the standings.
Brazil rose four spots to reach the top of the rankings while Spain - who surprisingly lost to the USA in the last four of the Confederations Cup - slipped to second.
Holland have fallen to third, World Cup holders Italy stay fourth while Germany slip two places to fifth.
Russia, England, Argentina, France and Croatia make up the top ten.
Scotland dropped two places to 24th, Northern Ireland slipped five places to 32nd, Republic of Ireland fell three places to 37th while Wales rose seven places to 67th.
