Ranked No. 1 in the world for 4 consecutive years, the European Red Devils Belgian men's football team, why can't get the championship?

FIFA officially announced the 2021 year-end world rankings, the European Red Devils Belgium national team continues to occupy the top position, which is also the Belgian men's football ranked No. 1 in the world for four consecutive years.

In fact, the European Red Devils have been "dominating" since they took the top position in September 2018.

Belgium team known as the "European Red Devils", in the history of international football A-level competition has A good record, why can not get the championship?

The best result in the European Cup is second, the best result in the World Cup is third.

Summed up the four illusions of football.

Later fans jokingly, now the fifth illusion in football has been produced, that is, the Belgian men's football ranked first in the world.

In fact, the FIFA points rules or very thoughtful, points this multi-grade, Belgium team results in recent years is still very stable, the World Cup group stage, the knockout stage won Brazil, two wins England.

The European Cup group stage is also a win, 16 into 8 also beat Portugal, the world preliminary stage is also undefeated group first, points are high.

On the other hand, Italy, which won the title this year, did not appear in the 18 World Cup, and won the European Cup, but the world preliminary results were poor.

The national team not only gets points for playing in intercontinental and international competitions, but also gets points for playing some friendly games.

But the premise is that you have to play against the same ranking team, if the other team's ranking is too different from you, even if you win the game is no points!

If a lower-ranked team wins over a higher-ranked team, the increase in points will be large, while a higher-ranked team wins over a lower-ranked team, the increase in points will not be much, or even non-increase in points.

The new points rules make the selection of opponents also affect the score of the game, in this point, France has done a little unsatisfactory, they lost not to a famous or equal team, but to the unknown Turkish team, the result of which has caused France's points quickly dropped.

But Belgium is not the same, in all the games they played, they only lost to Switzerland once, and the Netherlands was neck and neck once, the rest of the games ended in victory, because of their careful choice of opponents, so that Belgium scored very high in this area.

The relative top-ranked team loses to the lower-ranked team, and some points will be deducted.

The reason why Belgium has been leading other teams in points is mainly that it has not lost to weak teams in recent years.

But although Belgium plays more stable, will not lose to those weak teams, the lineup is more balanced, but the strength is actually so, each point is not bad, but each point is not so strong, which also led to Belgium in the face of a real strong team, it is difficult to win.
