Jakobsen takes the resulting freekick and smashes it well wide. Much to the displeasure of his team-mates who have come up from the back.

Caca drives at Ferdinand. The defender tugs Caca's shirt and he wins a freekick ... it was all the striker could do as he had no support.

I mentioned Rooney's rash challenge earlier, well the ref has had a word with him and told the striker to calm down.
