Aalborg caretaker boss Allan Kuhn has weighed into the row over an alleged stamping by Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney on Kasper Risgard.

Kuhn said: “Kasper said it’s sad for a fantastic footballer like Wayne Rooney that every time he gets a little bit emotional he does some stupid things on the pitch.

“He’s a world class player and he should only play football. The guys said that he was very angry and there was a lot of kicking of our players.

“If we can see he is doing it on purpose then of course action should be taken.”
