Rooney delighted to sit alongside 'legend' Law

Wayne Rooney moved into a share of second spot in Manchester United's all-time scoring charts with a late winner against CSKA Moscow.

Wayne Rooney described it as a "huge honor" to move level with Denis Law on 237 goals for Manchester United after he grabbed a late winner against CSKA Moscow at Old Trafford.

The forward was in the right place to head home Jesse Lingard's cross in the second half of the Champions League fixture at Old Trafford, and in the process ended United's goal drought in all competitions at 404 minutes.

Rooney now finds himself alongside Law in second place in the club's all-time goal-scoring charts.
