Wayne Rooney's midfield performance was absolutely crucial to Manchester United's FA Cup win on Saturday evening at Wembley Stadium. When the Red Devils went 1-0 down to an against-the-run-of-play goal from Crystal Palace's Jason Puncheon, Rooney's response was pretty remarkable.
He picked the ball up from deep and went on a driving run, eventually finding himself on the right-hand edge of the Palace penalty area, from where he dinked a cross over toward Marouane Fellaini. Fellaini used his chest to bring the ball down for Juan Mata, and United were back at the races.
