Wayne Rooney celebrated Manchester United's third goal against
Tottenham at Old Trafford with a boxing move, referencing a video that
appears to show him being knocked out.
Earlier on Sunday a video emerged in which Rooney appeared to be knocked unconscious in a kitchen boxing bout.
The Sun on Sunday clip claims to show the England striker sparring with Stoke City defender Phil Bardsley, at Rooney's home in Cheshire.
But after United's 3-0 win, the 29-year-old told Sky Sports: "That's the world we live in today.
"It's in my own home, it's not public, it's what friends do - they mess around in the house. It was a couple of mates in a private house, and somehow it's managed to get on the front page of a national newspaper."

Phil Neville: "There were lots of positives
for Manchester United to take away from their impressive win over
Tottenham but the most pleasing thing for me was to see Marouane
Fellaini get a standing ovation when he came off near the end." |
