Rooney out for a month, metatarsal broken
Don Seer:

broke that same thing becks broke a few years back
--- Quote ---Wayne Rooney has been ruled out for a month after breaking a bone in his foot during England's Euro 2004 quarter-final defeat.
The Everton striker went straight to hospital for x-rays after limping off the field after just 27 minutes.
Rooney was injured in a challenge from Jorge Andrade and tried to carry on playing but in the end had to be replaced by Darius Vassell.
Coach Sven-Goran Eriksson confirmed that Rooney had broken a metatarsal - just as David Beckham did two years ago.
"It's the same injury as David Beckham had before the World Cup, he will be out maybe a month," said Eriksson.
England lost the game 6-5 on penalties after the score was 2-2 at the end of extra-time.
