FIFA 22 ratings: Mooy, Rogic lead top 20 Socceroos and Australian stars image

Australian stars Mathew Ryan and Aaron Mooy have won the honour of being the top-ranked Socceroos players in the new FIFA 22 game.

The two green-and-gold veterans were both ranked at 77 - one point ahead of Melbourne City striker Jamie Maclaren, who was also equal top-ranked A-League player.

Backup goalkeeper Danny Vukovic received the fourth-highest rating at 74, while Milos Degenek was rated the best defender with a 73 card.

Celtic playmaker Tom Rogic dropped to a 72 rating after another injury-interrupted season, with his starting card peaking at 75 in 2018.

While new green and gold star Martin Boyle can consider himself to only earn a 70 rating, after being named in the Scottish Premiership team of the season last campaign and his flying start for the Socceroos.

A-League side Melbourne City featured three players in the top 20, including Maclaren, Mathew Leckie (71) and Curtis Good (69).

Two other Australian-based stars made the list - Sydney FC's Rhyan Grant (72) and Melbourne Victory's Chris Ikonomidis (72).
