Wayne Rooney is now the all-time leading scorer in Manchester United history after breaking Sir Bobby Charlton’s record on Saturday. And he did it in style, scoring a late equalizer against Stoke City with this sensational free kick:
Wayne Rooney breaks Manchester United all-time goals record with unbelievable free kick
Sir Bobby Charlton’s record is no more after this sensational strike.
This was the 250th goal of Rooney’s Manchester United career, which has spanned 13 seasons. He’s never failed to score double-digit goals in a campaign for the Red Devils, and his career best goals tally in one season is 34, achieved twice.
Rooney’s become a bit part player for United this season as his physical abilities have declined, but Jose Mourinho still likes to turn to him when United needs a goal late in games. He’s still a star in short bursts, and he showed off why with this goal.
