ROONEY AND SCHOLES BANNED
Manchester United have lost their appeals against the red cards handed out to Wayne Rooney and Paul Scholes during the pre-season tournament in Amsterdam.
The United pair were dismissed by Dutch referee Ruud Bossen against Porto and an independent disciplinary commission on Tuesday upheld Bossen’s decision.

Rooney and Scholes will both be banned for three matches against Charlton Athletic, Watford and Tottenham Hotspur, although they will be eligible for the season-opener against Fulham on Sunday.
