Michael Owen

Following in his father's footsteps, young Michael was off and running on the soccer field by the age of eight! Even though he was one of the smallest players, he was also one of the toughest. He was not afraid to get in there with the bigger players and grab that ball. He scored his first hat trick at age eleven and has been going ever since. An early re-injury took him out of the 2006 World Cup, but Michael Owen is still running strong and amazing soccer fans all over the world.
