World Cup 2010 - World Cup best and worst-looking XI
Eurosport - Wed, 07 Jul 12:08:00 2010
Dating website beautifulpeople.com has named its fantasy team of the World Cup's best-looking players - and has also named and shamed the least attractive in the ugliest XI.
Topping the list of the best-looking players at the tournament is Fabio Cannavaro, giving the Italian captain a welcome boost after he saw his side knocked out of the tournament at the group stage.
But there was more bad news for English duo Wayne Rooney and John Terry, whose World Cup misery is compounded as they made the Ugliest XI side - with Manchester United striker Rooney topping the list as the ugliest player at the tournament.
The dating website, which prides itself on its morally dubious stance of banning ugly people from joining, also worked out which were the best and worst looking teams.
Spain, IIaly and Brazil all came out well - while Algeria was nominated the ugliest side, closely followed by England.

Agger an Rooney are handsome freckled men, just like torres
They had a really hard time finding ugly professional footballers. The Uglies list is all perfectly normal-looking guys. If you go to the supermarket right now, I can guarantee that fully half of the guys you see at random would be uglier than anyone on that list.
this list pretty much hits the nail on the head in regards to yahoo sucking at everything.
Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.
Laughable, Agger is not ugly by any stretch of the imagination, Drogba is good looking? I saw plenty of his team mates (Ivory Coast) who where better looking. I know it;s a bit of fun but who ever picked the list did not do a good job.
Well as far as i have seen , Greek goalkeeper was the best good looking .
Every now and then people love to have fun-and this is it. players should not take offence about this.this should actually spur them to perform even better
Rooney the ugliest of the lot? For once I do agree with this assessment. Short, Fat & Ugly. Totally useless against the international opposition. Even Drogba did better with a broken arm. England should have sent SAF instead. He would have talked the opposition to death.
BEAUTY & UGLY IS IN THE EYES OF THE BEHOLDERs...HUMAN NATURE will always got this feeling...as long as all of us will die soon or later...we are all equal in the eyes of GOD!
How Dirk Kuyt missed out on the Beast XI I will never know.
He may be in the most handsome team but...Cristiano Ronaldo wins the 'Most Smackable Face in Football' Award 2010.
Where is Yoann Gourcuff of France? Best-looking! Also Makoto Hasebe of Japan..
Remember that TV moment when Mrs Merton said to Debbie McGee "what first attracted you to your millionaire husband Paul Daniels. To a lot of women if a man is very rich who cares whether he is good looking. Look at that guy in motor racing Bernie Eccleston he can pull the birds and he has face like a tram smash.
I'm sorry but Drogba is on the wrong side of the list. Drogba is probably fighting it out for the #1 spot with Shrek. The dude has two grapefruits for cheeks and a big @#$% forehead, he has the hair of a shrunken head voodoo doll not to mention a terrible attitude. There are so many more attractive African players you could have picked for the beauties section than Drogba.
The problem with Cristiano Ronaldo is that he's too tanned. Far far too much orange going on. A bit of a tan is nice but if you become obssessed with being tanned you start to make yourself look ridiculous. Not only that, but tanned skin is unhealthy skin. Have you any idea what tanned skin looks like under a dermatologist's sun damage camera? It's absolutely dreadful. Has put me off the sun for life. Get with the picture CR7 you do not look good son - and neiher does anybody else with an orange glow on their face. Pale is the 'new black', s they say.
Is really so important if they are good looking or not?
I thought football was about who play good or not,be a good player,score goals,etc... but i don't see how been good looking makes them good or bad players.
Espana to win
Where are Gerard Pique, Pedro, David Silva and Cesc Fabregas in the beauties list? Spain are by far the best and most attractive international team, both in the way they play and the way they look! Lukas Podolski for Germany is also more attractive then some on the list. Glad David Villa, the footballing God is on the list!
Ei! anyway but i see some beauties in the beasts
The most handsomeist footballer is the one who score's the winning goal in the World Cup final. Ha ha.
But they are richer than your @#$%...also they can @#$% any woman out there let alone dating them.
