Owen riles Rooney

LONDON. — Manchester United star Wayne Rooney took a swipe at former team-mate Michael Owen for expressing support for his club’s bitter rivals Liverpool. Owen has a foot in both camps after making his name during a glittering spell at Liverpool and also playing for United in the twilight of his career. But the 36-year-old, who played alongside Rooney for United and England, appeared to irritate his old colleague when he posted an encouraging message during Liverpool’s English Premier League clash with West Bromwich Albion on Saturday.

“Come on Red Men. A win by two goals and it’s ‘top of the league’,” Owen tweeted alongside a picture of the view from his seat in the Anfield stands. — AFP.
