document: Manchester United 's Wayne Rooney apologises for swearing outburst after hat-trick goal against West Ham Wayne Rooney 's hat-trick inspired another impressive Manchester United comeback at West Ham , although the striker was forced to apologise after swearing down a television camera after scoring his third goal . United swept back from 2-0 down at half-time to beat West Ham 4-2 , going seven points clear at the top of the table . Rooney scored the first with a free-kick , finished crisply for the second and converted a penalty for his hat-trick . Javier Hernandez , on as a substitute , added the fourth . `` We played like champions , '' said Sir Alex Ferguson . `` We did n't lose faith in ability and that was important . It is not an easy place to come here , with them fighting relegation and at 2-0 down we were under the cosh . It was a real championship performance . '' Ferguson conceded that Nemanja Vidic had enjoyed `` a lucky break '' when he was shown just a yellow card in the first half for pulling back Demba Ba when the last defender , but took issue with Lee Mason 's award of the second penalty against United . `` It was outside the box , '' he said . While Rooney delivered a superb performance his celebration of the third goal , when he was clearly picked up shouting `` - off '' by the pitch-side camera , caused considerable embarrassment to the broadcasters , who apologised to viewers immediately . Rooney also said sorry for the outburst , which came just days after Premier League chief executive Richard Scudamore had demanded that the Respect campaign was better observed . He said : `` I want to apologise for any offence that may have been caused , especially any parents or children watching . Emotions were running high and on reflection my heat-of-the-moment reaction was inappropriate . It was not aimed at anyone in particular . '' An FA spokesman confirmed the governing body would `` look at '' the incident . Rooney could be charged with bringing the game into disrepute , although that is unlikely . It is not the first-time Rooney has got in trouble with pitch-side cameras . After England 's 0-0 draw with Algeria in last year 's World Cup , he directed a foul-mouthed tirade into a camera at fans who were booing the team off the pitch .
