Germany star Ozil slams moaning Man Utd striker Rooney

Werder Bremen's Germany World Cup star Mesut Ozil has slammed England's players for their woeful campaign.

Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney claimed the team grew sick of "darts and snooker" at their training base in Rustenburg.

But ahead of tonight's semi-final with Spain in Durban, Ozil laughed off Rooney's words.

Ozil said: "Beating England 4-1 has to be my highlight because it showed that, despite what people may say or write, Germany is still one of the best footballing nations in the world.

"But if you find the greatest tournament on earth boring, then you probably shouldn't be there."
