Rooney scores wondergoal for Man Utd legends
Written by I Dig SportsWayne Rooney rolled back the years to score a free kick for Manchester United in a legends game against Celtic at Old Trafford on Saturday.
Rooney's right-footed free kick flew into the top corner to prove that he is still capable of magic after Darren Fletcher had been fouled by Joe Ledley.
The game eventually finished 1-1, after Gary Hooper equalised for the visitors, and Celtic won 5-4 on penalties.
United's XI also featured Premier League title winners Ronny Johnsen, Mikael Silvestre, Michael Carrick, Antonio Valencia and Dimitar Berbatov.
Paul Scholes, Nicky Butt and Denis Irwin were among the substitutes that played a part from the bench. Bryan Robson managed the side.
