Wayne Rooney: London Riots Need To End

England striker Wayne Rooney has appealed for an end to the violence and looting in London that has put Wednesday's exhibition match against the Netherlands in doubt.

After a third night of unrest in London, talks will be held Tuesday to see whether Scotland Yard can cope with policing the match at Wembley Stadium while trying to maintain order elsewhere.

"These riots are nuts why would people do this to there (sic) own country. Own city," Rooney wrote on Twitter. "This is embarrassing for our country. Stop please."(AP)
