England's Wayne Rooney reacts after a 2010 World Cup second round soccer match against Germany at Free State stadium in Bloemfontein June 27, 2010.

The Manchester United（曼彻斯特联队） goal machine, who flopped2 after being hyped（炒作） as a potential superstar in South Africa, heads the list of unattractive players on dating website BeautifulPeople.com.

Most beautiful, according to online voters subscribing3 to the site, are Italy's Fabio Cannavaro, Fernando Torres and David Villa4 of Spain, US mainstay Landon Donovan and France's Thierry Henry.

Rooney has the company of England team mate John Terry in the top 10 ugliest, but it's the Algerian team that comes out as collectively the least attractive on the planet, according to the poll.

BeautifulPeople.com claimed that 200,000 people had already voted and that the polling was ongoing5.
