Rooney scores MLS Goal of the Season contender from beyond midfield

If you thought Wayne Rooney was done when he made the jump to Major League Soccer, you might want to think again.

Rooney has been a hit since moving from Everton to D.C. United last summer, and came up with another moment of magic on Wednesday night to give his side a lead against Orlando City.

United came into the night sitting third in the Eastern Conference with Rooney having already netted seven times on the year, but his eighth of the season was a sure-fire goal of the season contender.
