Peru's national team holds the 21st position —with 1,525 points— in the latest World Ranking published Thursday by Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA).

The red-white squad dropped one place after losing friendly matches against the Netherlands and Germany, thus moving out of the Top 20

For the first time in the ranking's 25-year history, two teams —France and Belgium— are sharing the first place. 

Last month, the World Champions leaped six spots to position themselves at the top, followed by Belgium. 

However, the Red Devils won a pair of games, which let them move up one place.  

Denmark ended 10th (down one), the other change in the Top 10.
