“We will enjoy seeing each other, hopefully put on a good show for the fans, challenge each other and at the end we can sit and chill out for a little bit.” Rooneys outrageous effort was similar to a free-kick he scored against Stoke in January 2017, which saw him become Uniteds leading goalscorer with 250 goals, surpassing Sir Bobby Charltons all-time record.It was also similar to Juninho’s memorable effort for Lyon against Barcelona in a 2009 last 16 Champions League tie.Rooney has been playing in MLS since last summer. Having ended his 13-year spell at Old Trafford with 253 goals in 2017, he rejoined boyhood club Everton before moving to DC United.
