Rooney to start for England's final group match

DONETSK, Ukraine, June 19 (Xinhua) -- England manager Roy Hodgson confirmed at a pre-match press conference on Monday that striker Wayne Rooney will start at the final Euro 2012 group match against Ukraine.
The Manchester United striker, who just came out of a two-match suspension 1, had missed both the first two Group D matches ahead of Tuesday's last one with a red card in the qualifier against Macedonia.
"I have made it clear that Wayne Rooney will start. That decision has been made," Hodgson said.
"He has been training fully 2 and he is fully fit. He is as sharp as he was when he played his last game for Manchester United," he added.
Then there came the classic dilemma 3 for the coach whom to drop for Rooney's return, Danny Welbeck or Andy Carroll. Both the strikers scored in England's 3-2 win over Sweden on Friday.
"It is a difficult choice as both have done so well. They have given me the classical managers headache, but it a headache we all want," Hodgson said.
England, having tied with France 1-1 and beaten Sweden 3-2, need a draw to qualify 4 for the last eight, while France also need just one point to advance in the other Group D match against the already-eliminated Swedes.
