Credit to: The history books for Manchester United were re-written on Saturday as Wayne Rooney officially became the club’s first player to officially score up to 250 goals. The 250th goal scored by Rooney was indeed a very important one as he saved the Red Devils from defeat, forcing a 1-1 draw against Stoke City.
