Rooney to make final international appearance tonight

Wayne Rooney is taking his international bow tonight.

In what has been dubbed by the FA as the 'Wayne Rooney Foundation International', the match is set to raise funds for his charitable interestests.

England's all-time record goalscorer will earn his 120th cap against the United States at Wembley.

Rooney's one-off return has been met with criticism, but the former Manchester United striker thinks it is a nice gesture to make.

"We felt that it was a good opportunity to get some minutes again and say thank you to the fans", noted the striker at a press conference yesterday.
