Rooney returns to training for United

Soccer Betting Lines

03/09/2010 - Manchester, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Manchester United has been handed a big boost ahead of Wednesday's Champions League last 16 second leg clash with AC Milan after Wayne Rooney was able to take part in training on Tuesday morning.

Rooney had to sit out Saturday's 1-0 win against Wolves and was expected to miss the Rossoneri encounter.

Sir Alex Ferguson had blamed Rooney's absence on the striker's desire to carry on playing after he starred in United's 2-1 Carling Cup final victory over Aston Villa before playing for the full 90 minutes as England beat Egypt in a friendly international.

However, there are fears that Wes Brown sustained a broken metatarsal during the victory at Molineux. Anderson (knee), Ryan Giggs (arm) and John O'Shea (leg) remain on the sidelines while Jonny Evans missed the Wolves game.

Ferguson had said on Monday: "Rooney is very doubtful for the Milan game unfortunately. It's one of these bad bits of luck you get - the Wembley pitch has just killed him.

"I was pleased with how (Dimitar) Berbatov did against Wolves though and I'll probably start with him on Wednesday."

United won last month's first leg at the San Siro 3-2.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds  
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.
