Rooney minute by minute

4 mins: A quick pass into the right side of the Ecuador area from Frank Lampard almost gives the England striker a shooting chance, but the ball runs out of play.

14: Takes on Geovanny Espinoza on the right, and nearly forces his way clear into the box, but the ball cannons off the Manchester United striker and behind for a goal-kick.

15: Tries a delicate chip from the edge of the area but not enough height or weight to trouble Ecuador keeper Cristian Mora.

38: Rooney is forced to drop deep to pick up possession and start another England attack, which comes to nothing.

41: Hurtado gifts Rooney possession just outside the penalty area. The striker attempts to slip Steven Gerrard clear into the right side of the box, but Espinoza handles the ball during his sliding challenge - which is missed by Belgian referee Frank De Bleeckere.

42: Confronts the assistant referee after being adjudged to have fouled Hurtado as the pair chased a long ball from David Beckham.

57: Attempts to barge his way through a pair of Ecuador defenders into the penalty area, and is called up correctly for the foul.

70: Lampard's centre is just too far ahead of the advancing United striker as England, now 1-0 up, play their best football of the match.

73: Rooney produces a brilliant bit of skill to nutmeg Hurtado on the left by-line, before cutting inside and pulling the ball back for Lampard - who blazes his shoot high over the crossbar.

76: Collects a long pass forwards and charges towards the right side of the penalty area, where his shot is deflected and Mora has to make a smart low save.

81: Turns Hurtado inside out again, and this time his cutback towards Lampard in the six-yard box is cut out by the Ecuador keeper at full stretch.
