(World Press Release) England striker Wayne Rooney’s ban has been reduced to two matches from three matches after a successful appeal to Uefa in Switzerland.

Rooney was banned after being sent off for kicking out at Miodrag Dzudovic during England’s 2-2 draw with Montenegro in October.

The argument for England manager Fabio Capello to take Wayne Rooney to Euro 2012 is surely over as he will now be available for England’s third Group D game against joint Euro 2012 hosts Ukraine.

Bookmakers have responded to the news by slashing the odds on Wayne Rooney to be the Top goalscorer at Euro 2012 from 33/1 to around 20/1. The likes of David Villa of Spain, Robin Van Persie of Holland and Mario Gomez of Germany still head the Euro 2012 Golden Boot betting market but Rooney is sure to attract punter support following the news today.
