Facing off in the warm weather of Central Florida, an ocean away from the perennially rainy confines of Old Trafford where they teamed up for seven seasons, Wayne Rooney and Nani faced off as club opponents for the first time and it was Rooney who left Orlando with a victory.
The former Manchester United teammates showed their quality, but it was Rooney who had the bigger impact on the proceedings at Orlando City Stadium, setting up D.C. United's opening goal before scoring his own wonder goal to secure a 2-1 win, his team's first road victory in almost a year.
