skynews: As FIFA extend the vote for this year's Ballon d'Or player award - who would YOU would choose?..Ronaldo or messi

An incredible Cristiano Ronaldo
hat-trick against Sweden last
night, could he yet beat Lionel
Messi to this year's Ballon d'Or
win?....

Cristiano Ronaldo could yet
triumph in this year's Ballon D'or
vote after an exceptional hat-trick
last night - and an extension of
the voting process.
FIFA have been forced to push
back the deadline because of low
turnout by coaches, captains and
media voters - giving the
Portuguese a huge chance of
success.
No Englishman
features on this
year's Ballon d'Or shortlist
- but there's plenty of Premier
League interest.
Luis Suarez, who has
started the
season with a flourish at
Liverpool
, stars along with Robin van Persie
who triumphed in his first season
at Manchester United.
Eden Hazard, Mesut Ozil and Yaya
Toure have also been named on
the 23-man list.
And the only Brit who has made
the cut is the world's most
expensive footballer Gareth Bale
after his excellent season with
Tottenham.
But who do YOU think should
win? Can Ronaldo beat Messi to
this year's award? Have your say
here in our poll.
Who would be your Ballon d'Or
winner?
Mesut Ozil (Arsenal/Germany)
