Wayne Rooney became Manchester United’s all-time top goalscorer in all competitions this afternoon as his scored an injury time equaliser at Stoke City with a stunning free kick.
The United captain has now scored 250 goals for the Red Devils – one more than Sir Bobby Charlton.
Rooney accomplished the record in front of Charlton who was watching on from the stands at the Britannia Stadium.
It was only the forward’s second Premier League goal of the season having scored in the away win at Bournemouth in United’s first game of the season.
Sir Alex Ferguson signed Rooney for £25.6 million from Everton after impressing at Euro 2004. He went on to score a hat-trick on his Manchester United debut in their 6-2 UEFA Champions League thrashing of Fenerbahçe in September that year.
