Rooney faces FA charges

England's Football Association (FA) on Monday charged Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney following his foul-mouthed outburst into a television camera during Saturday's 4-2 win over West Ham at Upton Park.
As Rooney celebrated with United team-mates after completing his hattrick from the penalty spot - United having been 2-0 down earlier - the England star was caught uttering a series of audible expletives towards the camera.
Rooney's swearing was beamed around the world by Sky Sports with the game televised in more than 200 countries and the incident prompted an on-air apology from the broadcasters.
