England have fallen two places in the latest FIFA World Rankings.

Despite holding the 10th position for several months they have now dropped two places to 12th.

Germany have swapped places with England despite Michael Owen's hat-trick and goals from Emile Heskey and Steven Gerrard in the 5-1 destruction on their soil.

France remain top, World Cup favourites Argentina are second while Brazil are in third position.
