Can you name the 24 players who received votes for the 2005 Ballon d'Or?

To mark Ronaldinho's 40th birthday, Sports Mole challenges you to name all of the players who finished behind him in the voting for the 2005 Ballon d'Or.

Ronaldinho won the World Cup, Copa America and Champions League, amongst other honours, during his illustrious career, but on an individual level he scaled the heights of football in 2005.

The Barcelona superstar won the prestigious Ballon d'Or after leading Barcelona to their first domestic title since 1999, beating off competition from all of the world's best players to scoop the award.

Ronaldinho was also named World Player of the Year that year too - an award he would pick up again in 2006 - but it was the Ballon d'Or which firmly cemented him as one of the greats of his generation.

Here, to mark the Brazil legend's 40th birthday, we are challenging you to name all of the other players who received a vote and finished behind Ronaldinho in the 2005 voting.

We've given you one, but how many of the other 23 players can you name?
