Speaking after the game, Rooney said the tackle was an accident and apologised to the Chelsea midfielder.
“It was accidental [the foul on Oscar],” he told BT Sport.
“I knew straight away I caught him and could've caused him a bit of damage, so I apologise.
“I apologised on the pitch, nothing was meant and I think the referee saw there was no intention of hurting him.
“He's given me a yellow card which I probably deserve.”
