To mark Wayne Rooney’s landmark achievement of becoming Manchester United’s most prolific scorer in European competition, we’ve selected what we feel are his five best strikes against overseas teams. The Reds’ no.10 moved ahead of Ruud van Nistelrooy with his 39th Euro strike against Feyenoord on Thursday and the beautifully deft finish made us think of other glorious goals he has treated us to since 2004. Our selected quintuple contains some of the finest examples of Wayne’s natural attacking ability. For example, the video includes two crucial goals against AC Milan from 2007 and 2010, and a pair of thunderbolts in the Europa League on trips to face Athletic Bilbao and Fenerbahce.
