Zurich: World champions France predictably shot to the top of the FIFA rankings published on Thursday while previous leaders Germany slumped to 15th after their humiliating first-round exit in the World Cup in Russia. France were followed by Belgium, the team they beat 1-0 in the semifinals, with Brazil dropping one place to third after their quarterfinal exit against the Belgians. Surprise finalists Croatia leapt from 20th to fourth. — Agencies
