Rafael Says Sorry

Manchester United full-back Rafael da Silva has issued an apology for his behaviour after he was sent off at White Hart Lane on Sunday. The 20 year old faced a charge of misconduct which he admitted, but there is a request from the player to have a personal hearing to plead his case. He does however admit that it was wrong to cause a scene with referee Mike Dean. He said: "I have accepted the charge because what I did was wrong.  "It happened because I was so frustrated at being sent off in such an important game. I apologise for my behaviour.''
