Like their rugby counterparts early in the week, the Republic of Ireland soccer team have fallen in the latest world rankings.

Martin O'Neill's side have dropped from 65th down to 67th; making way for Australia and UAE who have leaped above them. Indeed the Aussies have moved up 37 places following their AFC Asian Cup win.

Elsewhere the top five remain the same, with Germany, Argentina and Colombia making up the top three.

England have fallen to 15th, with Northern Ireland dropping to 51st, and Ireland's group rivals Scotland *insert synonym for dropping here* to 38th.

There will be a quick test on all these figures at the end of today's class.
