Henry and Carragher get nightmare draw as Pundits Ballon d'Or last-16 confirmed

The Pundits Ballon d'Or has reached the knockout stages - and the voting is now live! You've helped us pick the top 16 football pundits and now they're going head-to-head in the knockout stages.

Thirty of the country's best pundits were put into five heats and with your votes doing the pruning, the top three progressed from each, alongside the best-performing fourth-placed finisher.

But only one can be crowned the sovereign of the studio floor. Mirror Football needs your help once again to fine-tune the last eight.

CBS colleagues Jamie Carragher and Thierry Henry face off in the popcorn match-up of the round of 16 and there'll be no knee touching here. But will the savvy Frenchman or the Liverpool hero reign supreme?

Michael Owen is our lucky fourth-placed loser and he's in the round of 16. A crisp Battle of the Garys is also on the cards as Neville tackles Lineker. Vote now!

The arrival of the round of 16 marks the end of the road for some big hitters. Daniel Sturridge has danced his last dance, whilst Joe Hart's heart was broken. Throw in Joe Cole, Martin Keown and Robbie Savage and we've already seen some elite casualties.

Zero-waffle Keane was the heat stage's cherry and he gained the most votes out of all contemporaries. The No. 1 seed has been rewarded with a matchup against Glenn Hoddle, which could be a doddle.

"I'll tell you something right now" Ally McCoist was your second pick and he's matched up against the dapper Jamie Redknapp. Ian Wright is one for the purists and his opponent is the lucky-loser Owen.

Larger-than-life personalities clash as 'Big Meeks' Micah Richards takes on Rio 'Ballon d'Or' Ferdinand and Alan Shearer will duel with Peter Crouch, who some might feel stands head and shoulders above the rest.
