Unofficial overall table

FIFA does not maintain an official overall table. The table can be sorted manually according to the various criteria. Games that have been decided on penalties will be counted as a tie. This table is pre-sorted according to the number of laps achieved and, due to cross-group comparability, according to the mode of the ranking list of the third group .

Trainer

  • 15 teams are coached by men and nine by women. There are no teams in any group that are trained only by women or men.
  • The Spanish coach Jorge Vilda (born July 7, 1981) is the youngest and Tom Sermanni (born July 1, 1954) the oldest.
  • Four teams (Canada, New Zealand, Nigeria and Norway) are overseen by foreign coaches.
  • Most coaches were born in the UK (5) and Sweden (3), with Jill Ellis / USA and Hue Menzies / Jamaica only spending part of their childhood in England . In addition to their home countries, they also train New Zealand (Tom Sermani / Schotte), Nigeria (Thomas Dennerby / Swede) and Norway (Martin Sjögren / Swede).
  • No head coach has already been a world champion as a player.
  • Only four countries are competing with the same head coach as they did in Canada in 2015: Brazil with Vadão , South Korea with Yoon Duk-yeo , Thailand with Nuengrutai Srathongvian and the USA with Jill Ellis ; four years ago it was three. In addition, as in 2003 and 2007, Argentina competes with Carlos Borrello .
  • Nigeria, on the other hand, are competing with another coach for the eighth time.
  • Four coaches are competing with other teams this time: Thomas Dennerby (now Nigeria, 2007 and 2011 with Sweden), Kenneth Heiner-Møller (now Canada, 2007 with Denmark), Tom Sermanni (now New Zealand, 1995, 2007 and 2011 with Australia ) and Martina Voss-Tecklenburg (now Germany, 2015 with Switzerland)
  • Three coaches (Corinne Diacre, Asako Takakura and Martina Voss-Tecklenburg) were previously used as players at a World Cup. On June 5, 1995, Takakura and Voss played against each other in the game between Germany and Japan.
  • Yoon Deuk-yeo took part as a player for South Korea in the men's World Cup in Italy in 1990, where he received the red card in the last group game against Uruguay .

Continental champion

  • All current continental champions take part in the World Cup.

  • Two continental champions (Europe and Oceania) meet in a preliminary round group.
  • Only in group B no continental champions were drawn.

General

  • All teams that had taken part in all previous World Cup finals were able to qualify again this time: Brazil, Germany, Japan, Nigeria, Norway, Sweden and the USA.
  • The country with the most World Cup experience that failed to qualify for 2019 is North Korea , which has already participated in four World Cups in a row. North Korea could not use the home advantage in a qualifying tournament in April 2017 and were eliminated after a draw against South Korea due to the fewer goals scored, making North Korea the only team that could not qualify for the World Cup undefeated.
  • Chile , Jamaica as the first team from the Caribbean, Scotland and South Africa participated for the first time, but were eliminated after the group stage. All newcomers scored at least one goal, but only Chile won a game, but scored one goal too few to reach the round of 16.

Impact on the FIFA World Ranking

The USA remained world number leader with seven victories, which is the first time that the world number leader won the world title. The gap to Second Germany is now greater than ever with 121 points.

Although Germany won four World Cup games, the team lost points because the victories against China and Spain earned only a few points, the victories against South Africa and Nigeria even negative points and the defeat against Sweden in the quarter-finals was particularly significant. The fact that the World Cup was dominated by European teams alongside the USA also meant that European teams were now in 2nd to 6th place and Australia and Canada fell out of the top 6.

After the World Cup, participants in the final took the first eight places in the world rankings. With North Korea, which was not qualified, follows in 9th place the first team that did not take part in the finals and rose by two places due to points lost by World Cup participants. The test games of the participants before the World Cup were also included in the evaluation, but were rated lower than the World Cup games.
