The 20-year-old Rooney was suspended for two matches and fined 2,400 by Fifa following his red card at the World Cup but unfortunatley for him and Manchester United, he was sent off in the first half of Manchester United's 3-1 win over Portuguese side FC Porto.

United Manager Sir Alex Ferguson said, "The possibility of suspensions is a real worry for us but we just have to hope that fairness comes in to it as Wayne, in particular, should not have been sent off. The player made more of it than he should and I'm afraid that is endemic in our game.

"Just before that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had been elbowed and the referee did nothing so I'm not sure what he was thinking when he sent Wayne off. Paul Scholes can have no excuse, though. He went through the man from behind and did not get the ball."
