European champion Spain remained atop of the latest FIFA rankings published Wednesday by soccer's world governing body.

With few teams in action last month and the World Cup qualifiers on hold until February, the Top 14 stayed unchanged as Spain held onto the No. 1 spot for a seventh consecutive month, ahead of Germany, the Netherlands, Italy and Brazil.

Argentina, Croatia, England, Russia and Turkey round out the Top 10.

The only changes in the Top 25 saw Egypt and Nigeria move up one and two spots, respectively, to 15th and 17th.

Canada moved up four places to No. 86, sandwiched between Qatar and Congo.

At No. 22, the United States is the top team from CONCACAF, the soccer confederation that covers North and Central America and the Caribbean.

Canada ranks ninth among CONCACAF nations behind the U.S., Mexico States (No. 26), Costa Rica (No. 47), Jamaica (No. 66), Trinidad & Tobago (No. 73), Cuba (No. 77) and Panama (No. 83).

Seven countries, including Guam, San Marino and Papua New Guinea, were tied for last at No. 201.

The next FIFA rankings will be published Feb. 11.
