Rooney: No deliberate stamp on Carvalho

England striker Wayne Rooney insists he did not deliberately stamp on Portugal’s Ricardo Carvalho in Saturday’s World Cup quarter-final and insists he was “gobsmacked” by the red card he received.

The 20-year-old Manchester United striker has also admitted he was “disappointed” with Old Trafford colleague Cristiano Ronaldo’s behaviour during the match but said: “I bear no ill feeling to Cristiano.”
