NO PLAYER IN history has scored more Manchester United goals than Wayne Rooney.
Despite enduring what has largely been a disappointing season by his own high standards, Rooney has equalled United’s all-time goalscoring record in this afternoon’s FA Cup third-round tie against Reading.
With just seven minutes on the clock at Old Trafford, Rooney turned in a cross from Juan Mata after good work down the left by Anthony Martial.
The strike was Rooney’s 249th for United — the same number of goals that was scored for the club by the legendary Bobby Charlton.
Rooney joined United in 2004 and scored a hat-trick against Fenerbahce on his debut.
