Rooney in new World Cup injury scare

Groin injury for Manchester United star

It has been a disastrous day for Manchester United with Chelsea’s romp at Stamford Bridge preventing them from winning the league. However, it looks as though it could be a very bad day for England fans as well with the news that Wayne Rooney limped out of the action with what looks like a groin injury.

At the moment, there is no way of knowing how serious the injury to Rooney is but the fact that the player has remained on the bench as opposed to moving up the tunnel for further treatment should give some hope that the injury is not serious.

All of England’s hopes for South African glory have been heaped on Wayne Rooney’s shoulders, which is a big task for any player. With Steven Gerrard dropping in form and the first choice centre half pairing of John Terry and Rio Ferdinand looking shaky, England are not in great shape for the forthcoming tournament.

Fabio Capello will be praying that the Premier League’s second top goalscorer will be fit for the start of the tournament but Rooney has been picking up a lot of injuries of late. It may be best for the player to get a rest but with the country relying on him, there is no real time or opportunity to let Wayne Rooney get back to full fitness.

If Rooney is missing can England win the World Cup?
