RUSTENBURG, South Africa, June 15 (Xinhua) -- England received a good news on Tuesday as striker Wayne Rooney and side-back Ashley Cole resumed full training.

The duo missed Monday's training session, with Cole doing rehabilitation work on old injuries and Rooney recovering from an ankle knock he picked up in the opening World Cup draw against the United States.

However both of them were fit enough to return on Tuesday morning as England continued their preparations for Friday's Group C match against Algeria in Cape Town.

Center back Ledley King, whose groin injury is being monitored on a daily basis, was still absent from the training. His presence in the remainder of the tournament is in doubt after the Tottenham captain was forced out at half-time in the outing against the U.S. on Saturday.

Although the Football Association has so far refused to speculate on how long the defender will be sidelined, it seems unlikely that King will be involved in the other two group matches.
