Rooney is starting to get on quite a roll.. I suspect he will break a toe next week.

I didn't get to watch that match as I had a friend in town, but I saw T&T's first goal off brads head... unlucky... in other world cup qual news:
Torres and Babel both injured for Liverpool, Torres is out 10 days
:-) most likely not to play against Wigan, Atletico Madrid and probably Chelsea... time for Keane to earn his wages... Babel has an ankle injury with no time frame for return
Robinho is also out of the action with a thigh strain for an undetermined amount of time.
Michael Owen is hoping to return to duty in 10 days time after a groin strain.
Cesc Fabregas has suffered a quite probable broken nose but insisted on playing through for Spain. He says he will try to push through for Arsenal as he is the oldest of the midfielders (thats scary).
Adjust your teams accordingly.....

(I have this passionate extreme dislike for 99 percent of Italian football, the national team, clubs etc.. say 99% because Alexandre Pato's first goal ever was something to behold, first touch in the Serie A is a goal... can't knock it, so don't take it offensively... I just hate 'em... think Doc Holiday)

Babel isn't out long, just a strained ankle, nothing serious.

:-) the defensive style of football, the macho behaviour, Italian football is boring. I never watch Italian calcio, even though some of my favorite players (Cristian Chivu, Zlatan Ibrahimovic) play there. And they play for the most boring team, Inter Milan.
