[Video] Rooney scores 52nd goal for England in 2-1 win over Australia

Teenager Marcus Rashford opened the scoring and Rooney rolled back the years to give England a 2-1 victory in their pre-Euro friendly against Australia.

Wayne Rooney scored a lovely goal to put England 2-0 up against the Socceroos after his United teammate Marcus Rashford opened the scoring for them in the 3rd minute. In the 55th minute, Rooney took a touch and then placed it into the back of the net from just outside the penalty area to score his 52nd goal for England.

Wazza in now 3 goals ahead of England’s second-highest goalscorer Sir Bobby Charlton after surpassing him during the Euro 2016 qualifying campaign.
