Rooney up and running

Wayne Rooney has taken the first steps down the long road to proving his fitness for the World Cup finals.The Manchester United striker was spotted taking part in running, turning and ball work at Carrington ahead of England's final training session before tomorrow's clash with Jamaica at Old Trafford.Rooney was accompanied in his workout by two members of United's backroom staff and the session was halted once members of the media were allowed in to film the official training session.The fact Rooney is able to undertake such exercises will be a boost to Sven-Goran Eriksson before he has another scan on June 7.The 20-year-old has been sidelined since April 29, when he suffered a broken metatarsal injury to his right foot in United's 3-0 defeat at Chelsea.
