Wayne Rooney denied diving to get Bastian Schweinsteiger sent off during the final minutes of Manchester United's 1-1 draw with Bayern Munich on Tuesday.

"I don't really want to say what he said but I think it's a foul," Rooney stated. "It could have gone either way. He could have hurt me, he's gone in with his studs and the referee has booked him, so it's not my decision. It's not nice to see anyone sent off and I didn't try to get him sent off. The referee has made a decision. I've tried to stop myself getting hurt and the referee has had a decision to make."

Rooney believes that Bayern can be exposed by getting in behind them.

"They play a high line and with a little more composure we can exploit that," said Rooney.
