Each bar is the team’s rank within its own competition — Netherlands: World Cup Qualification UEFA 2025/2026; Sweden: World Cup Qualification UEFA 2025/2026. A longer bar is a stronger standing; because the two competitions differ, only relative standing is comparable, not raw numbers. Style data via FotMob.
