Wayne Rooney's most memorable highs and lows for England

Famous red card against Portugal in World Cup 2006

Rooney has always been known to be someone who plays his games on edge and he is a hotheaded customer on the pitch, which frequents in bookings every now and again.

That was a side to Wayne Rooney which got the better of him in this occasion. Rooney was on the clock in a race against time to recover from a broken foot in the weeks leading to the 2006 FIFA World Cup. He did his utmost to recover in time and was deemed fit to play in the crucial quarter final clash against Portugal.

But it wasn't meant to be, just like his last encounter with Portugal at Euro 2004.Rooney was sent off after a stamp on defender Ricardo Carvalho.

The incident also brought about World Cup's most memorable clips as then teammate Cristiano Ronaldo put pressure on the referee for a decision and later winked at the bench. Rooney along with David Beckham holds the record for most England sending offs with 2 each.
