Yep, that’s another one.

This is the real reason why I hate this graph. It should be a 1, not a 0.

Then you really have bigger things to cry about

Well both countries make you pay a small fee everytime. So people don’t just waste their service away like you see in countries where it is completely “free”

Can’t wait until this shit show is over and in the past.

"What happened in 2019/20?"

There might have been something or other that had an effect on one or two things.

Croatia joined FIFA in 1992 - the early low ranking reflects they were new to the ranking system rather than performance.

(Prior to independence in 1991 Croatia was part of Yugoslavia)

How many?

I'd like to see the 'then rankings' of the 'then SFinalists' for every WC.

Would be fun to see where all lower ranked teams did well kn an average...

Are you kidding? It’s not like these are from some estranged country in Tibet. Almost all are pretty relevant.

and teams change so much in 4 years. Morocco might’ve been 41 in 2018 but they were 22 coming into this tournament. Totally changes the message of the graph.

Wow clasdic english humor. No wonder your comedians are the pinnacle of humor with hilarious banter like that. No wonder you got shit teeth cuz your always smiling and people notice your nasty ass mouth

Excellent universities, high wages, good test scores when you control for race, funds pharma R&D for the rest of the world, top tech industry. Health care quality is actually pretty high, too, just expensive, and you can have a European life expectancy if you don't overeat garbage or abuse drugs.

Its a joke because england constantly loses in a penalty shoot out. Meanwhile this time the only time they jad clear goal scoring opportunities was on penalties. Its funny

Teams having a rank before the tournament is not something anyone really tales seriously in football

This sub is called data is beautiful, not boilerplate ggplot. This belongs more into r/soccer, as the visualization is boring and the data doesn't tell clever story.

It's also ridiculous that 0 is the top value when the ranking goes to 1, not 0

That's what you get for losing the war

At one point I’d’ve been able to name them if the silhouette of the country was on there.

Freaking AP Human Geography final and “correctly label every country on an unlabeled map (it had the borders at least).

All my homies want Croatia vs Morocco final

we don't love insurance companies, our politicians love insurance companies

I would love to see a deflation map over history. I know it’s more rare but still curious.

Well I don't think any education system has you learning all 200+ flags of the world. And it's not like there's a real need to focus on the 32 World Cup teams.
