He won the The BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year in 2002 for being "touted by many as the most promising English football talent to have surfaced in recent years." He was adjudged PFA Young Player of the Year for two seasons (2004-05, 2005-06). This award is given annually by Professional Footballers' Association to the best player of the season in English Football who is aged 23 or under. He has been awarded the England Player of the year Award (2008 and 2009) that is presented by The Football Association to the most outstanding performers of the England national team. Rooneys brilliant hat-trick on his debut is certainly one of his best performances. In his first appearance for Manchester United, he scored three goals in a Champions League tie with Fenerbahce in 2004 helping his team to a 6-2 victory. In the 2006 Champions League final against Wigan Athletic, he scored the opening goal of the match as well as the final goal to guide Manchester United to a 4-0 win. Rooney was named Man of the match for his brilliant performance. In Manchester Uniteds Premier League match against Tottenham in 2009, his team was trailing 2-0 at half time. Rooney fought back in the second half by scoring two goals and by assisting in two. His team came back to win the match 5-2. He scored the winning goal in the semi-final of the 2010 Carling Cup when Manchester United and Manchester City were locked at 3-3 in stoppage time. His goal brought the score to 4-3, thereby enabling his team to win and enter the final.
