Rooney keeps cool during testing England media conference

Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney kept his cool during an England media conference yesterday.

Rooney was peppered with questions as England's failure was picked apart, varying from his role in the team's attack to why Costa Rica have succeeded.

The 28-year-old spoke well at a packed press conference and only snapped once when asked whether this or missing out on the Champions League with Manchester United hurt more.

"I don't think that's a fair question," was the curt reply.

"It's two completely different things, so I don't think you're really being fair asking that question."
