England Euro 2012 odds hit by Wayne Rooney ban

Wayne Rooney has been hit with a three match ban
England have been pushed out to 11/1 to win Euro 2012 after Wayne Rooney was handed a three match ban by UEFA for his red card against Montenegro.

The Manchester United striker was given the maximum punishment by Europe's governing body at a hearing on Thursday afternoon and a three match suspension will mean that Rooney will miss all of England's group matches in Poland and Ukraine.

This is a major blow for Fabio Capello's side, particularly given how influential the 25-year-old has been at club level this season, scoring nine league goals in just six matches.

The bookmakers have reacted quickly with England now 11/1, at William Hill, to win Euro 2012. Those odds could, however, shorten if the FA decide to appeal against the ban.

Capello could, of course, choose simply not to take Rooney to Poland and Ukraine and Victor Chandler offer 5/2 that the striker is not named in the Italian's 23 man squad.

Rooney is currently 2/1 favourite at Paddy Power to finish as the top goalscorer in the Premier League this season.
