Rooney Hates World Cup Halftime Show | Belfast News

Wayne Rooney called the World Cup halftime show “crap” — and he wasn’t alone in his blunt take. While legends like Ronaldo and Ronaldinho, plus BTS and Coldplay’s Chris Martin, lit up the stage for a 27-minute spectacle, Rooney, working as a BBC pundit, just wanted the football back on. He praised the artists individually but hated the whole package. His co-pundit Micah Richards called him “miserable” for being honest — especially since Richards himself loved Shakira and Burna Boy. Presenter Gabby Logan joked that honesty is the BBC’s specialty. It’s a perfect snapshot of how fans and pundits divide: some crave the show, others crave the sport.
