experience because i myself worked for the federation for a long time. i would say that the work done by luis rubiales and all his staff has been truly exceptional and that there have been some very good performances within the federation and the figures speak for themselves. as far as the latest episodes are concerned, it seems that the president has acknowledged his mistakes. i also think that my opinion is not necessary on this subject. the new fifa women s rankings are out and off the back of the world cup, sweden are up to number one in the world for the first time, and after 6 years at the top the usa are down to third. they were knocked out by the swedes in the last 16. spain are up to second after becoming world champions. beaten finalists england stay 4th. italy overcame angola on the opening day of the fiba basketball world cup in the philippines. the azurri mostly consists of players who ply their trade domestically but simone fontecchio plays for the utahjazz in the nba.
