New York - After a hugely disappointing World Cup, England striker Wayne Rooney is unlikely to be cheered by his latest accolade: second ugliest footballer on the planet.

The Manchester United goal machine, who flopped after being hyped as a potential superstar in South Africa, heads the list of unattractive players on dating website BeautifulPeople.com.

Most beautiful, according to online voters subscribing to the site, are Italy's Fabio Cannavaro, Fernando Torres and David Villa of Spain, US mainstay Landon Donavan 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 ongoing.
