That is a penalty in every sense of the call. The defender reached out to poke at where the ball used to be and that leg impeded rooney's leg and tripped him.
He may have been able to get the foot back under him, but he's certainly not going to recover to the ball. Tenacious yes. A world class sprinter, with only a trapeze line as a track, he is not.

I'm mostly just poking fun at United fans who claim he never goes over easy. I agree it should've been called, but thems the breaks.
