Rooney: 'Total respect' for England fans despite fight

A spokesman for Wayne Rooney insists he has “total respect” for England fans despite confirmation last night that he had been involved in an altercation with a fan as Steve McClaren’s team left Zagreb following the 2-0 defeat to Croatia.

Rooney was among a group of players heading to the team bus when he was singled out for a barrage of personal abuse from a supporter frustrated at the performance of Steve McClaren’s men.
