Neymar and Pogba fall out of top 25 players in the world

Superstar football duo Neymar and Paul Pogba have both missed out on this year's Goal 50.

Neymar had featured in every list of the world's top male players since 2011, even finishing as high as fourth in 2015 after helping Barcelona win the treble.

However, after two further top 10 finishes in the colours of the Catalans, the Brazilian slipped down the standings at the end of an injury-hit first year at Paris Saint-Germain, finishing 24th.
