    "body": "<p>Canada remained ranked ninth in CONCACAF on the FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking. With only eight international matches played in the world in the past month, there was indeed very little movement by the more-than 200 countries worldwide. Canada remained unchanged at 450 points and 75th overall on the world ranking.</p><p>The FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking looks at each country&rsquo;s international results from the last four years. The ranking takes into account the result, the importance of the match, the strength of the opponent, the regional strength, the time period, and the number of matches per year. Matches played more than a year ago are valued 50% of matches played in the last year; matches played more than two years ago are valued at 30% while matches played more than three years ago are valued at 20%.</p><p>In CONCACAF, only Jamaica skipped ahead of Panama amongst the top-10 teams in the confederation. Mexico, USA and El Salvador remain the top-three teams in the region, followed by Jamaica, Panama, Costa Rica, Honduras, Haiti, Canada and Trinidad and Tobago.</p><p>The next FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking will be published on 6 June 2012.</p><p><strong>CONCACAF<br>\u200b</strong>20 1 Mexico 867<br>\u200b29 2 USA 779<br>\u200b49 3 El Salvador 591<br>\u200b51 4 Jamaica 576<br>\u200b52 5 Panama 575<br>\u200b59 6 Costa Rica 549<br>\u200b62 7 Honduras 540<br>\u200b71 8 Haiti 486<br>\u200b75 9 Canada 450<br>\u200b82 10 Trinidad and Tobago 419</p><div class=\"release-content-contact\" id=\"contact-d0627c3f-e0c2-4a48-a838-f0f5f97ecc2b\">\n    \n    <div class=\"release-content-contact__details\">\n        <strong class=\"release-content-contact__name\">Paulo Senra</strong>\n        <em class=\"release-content-contact__description\">Chief Communications &amp; Content Officer | Chef des communications et du contenu, Canada Soccer</em>\n        <ul class=\"release-content-contact__details-list\"><li class=\"release-content-contact__details-list-item\"><a href=\"mailto:psenra@canadasoccer.com\"  class=\"release-content-contact__details-list-item-link\" title=\"psenra@canadasoccer.com\"><svg class=\"icon icon-paper-plane release-content-contact__details-list-item-icon\">\n                <use xlink:href=\"#icon-paper-plane\"></use>\n            </svg>psenra@canadasoccer.com</a></li>\n<li class=\"release-content-contact__details-list-item\"><a href=\"tel:(416)&nbsp;882-7919\"  class=\"release-content-contact__details-list-item-link\" title=\"(416)&nbsp;882-7919\"><svg class=\"icon icon-mobile release-content-contact__details-list-item-icon\">\n                <use xlink:href=\"#icon-mobile\"></use>\n            </svg>(416)&nbsp;882-7919</a></li></ul>\n    </div>\n</div>",
