Megan Rapinoe Leads FIFA 21 Women's Player Rankings


Rapinoe tops the list with a 93 rating in the latest version of FIFA.

The FIFA 21 women's player rankings were released on Friday and U.S. Women's National Team superstar Megan Rapinoe was tabbed as the game's top player.

Rapinoe tops the list with a 93 rating in the latest version of FIFA to finish just ahead of Australia's Samantha Kerr (92) and France's Wendie Renard (92).

Rapinoe is joined by three of her USWNT teammates in the top 15, including Tobin Heath (90), Alex Morgan (90) and Julie Ertz at 88.

The four teammates won the 2019 Women's World Cup together after defeating Netherlands in the final. The victory gave the USWNT its second straight World Cup title and fourth in total.

Following their World Cup win, Rapinoe was named Sports Illustrated's 2019 Sportsperson of the Year in December 2019. She became only the fourth woman in the Sportsperson of the Year's 66-year history to win it unaccompanied.
