Rooney will captain England against San Marino: 'Very proud'


Striker Wayne Rooney of Manchester United will be the captain of England in the duel against San Marino on Friday in Group H of the European qualifiers for World Cup 2014. The bout will be at Wembley and are expected about 90 thousand fans. The player, 26, takes the armband because of the absence of Gerrard and Lampard, who are out of the game. The first is suspended, and the second hurt. - This is something that really makes me very proud. It is a big challenge for me. I am anxious. I hope we can win - said Rooney, who has 76 appearances for Team Inglês. Rooney has been England captain in the 1-0 defeat to Brazil in November 2009 due to an injury of the then owner of the clamp, defender John Terry. The Chelsea defender has recently discontinued the England team.
