Michael Carrick has donned his new clubs colours for the first time since his £18 million transfer from Tottenham, playing in his preferred holding role in the centre of midfield. The game started well with two goals in the first half

Wayne Rooney has been sent off during their opening game of the LG Amsterdam Tournament against Porto. He appeared to hit Pepe with his forearm as he attempted to head the ball. Minimal contact was made but it was enough for the player to fall to the ground faster than a sack of spuds. It is the second time in 34 days that Rooney has seen red against Portuguese opposition.

Yet another referee makes his name from sending off Rooney the player with the biggest name on the pitch and the source of most of the exciting play.
