Argentina remain top of FIFA's world soccer rankings in an unchanged top 10 following the publication of the latest standings yesterday.

With none of the leading countries in action, the only change in the top 20 was Cameroon's climb of one place to 16th at the expense of Mexico, despite the Central Americans' 1-0 friendly win over China.

Argentina lead the rankings by two points ahead of Brazil, with world champions Italy in the third.

No team in the top 50 has climbed or fallen more than two positions, while there is also precious little movement further down the ranking.

Over the last four weeks, only the Best Mover of 2007, Mozambique (71st, up 7) and Lebanon (140th, up 8) have gained more than five places.

Malta are still ranked 135th in the FIFA list with a total of 202 points.
