“After the World Cup in 2018, it was a real objective to become number one in the world because that is a way of measuring a national team’s consistency.
“There are two ways of measuring the national team: there is tournament football and there is the consistency of that level to win games, qualification campaigns, and it is almost an objective that allows you to qualify for good tournaments.
“To be number one for four years is a tremendous achievement when you look at the size of the nation, and only two national teams – Brazil and Spain – have had a longer period.
