Why did these players top the charts?
FA Women's Super League star Miedema sits joint-top of the charts, with the Dutch forward having hit more than 100 goals for Arsenal during her time in England.
Renard and Bronze are more concerned with defensive duties, but Chelsea star Kerr is another notable goal-getter.
Outside of that elite group at the summit, it comes as no surprise to find that the USWNT is well represented.
Megan Rapinoe, Alex Morgan and Tobin Heath are among the U.S. World Cup winners to get impressive ratings in FIFA 22.
Talented performers from 10 different nationalities are included in the top 22 players on the game, with experienced forward Christine Sinclair making the cut for 2020 Olympic gold medal winners Canada.
