The main photo above shows Wayne battling for possession with
Portugal's Ricardo Carvalho and Nuno Valente (14) during the Euro 2004
quarter-final. Rooney was forced to leave the action after just 27
minutes due to an injured foot and England looked a shadow of the side
without him, losing 6-5 on penalties after leading 1-0 when Wayne was
taken off.
