    To be fair FIFA does seem to produce some bizarre rankings. Portugal ahead of Brazil? Denmark ahead of Argentina? I wouldn't put a lot of money on Denmark to beat Argentina... though to be honest I would never put any money on Argentina to win anything anywhere ever. That really would go against the grain :D

    @ Alexei Last game Netherlands played against Uruguay, Uruguay won (albeit on penalties, but still a win). I think Uruguay's ranking is deserved and well estimated.
