Wayne Rooney has started the new MLS season in fine form



He won the set-piece after being fouled near the corner flag and curled in his fourth goal of the season from an almost impossible angle.





The win moves DC United to the top of the Eastern Conference.


Rooney was playing against former United team-mate Nani, who signed a three-year deal with Orlando in February.


Prior to the game, which Nani was substituted in after 78 minutes, he said: â€Å“It’s a long time since I’ve seen him. It will be a good time to catch up and talk a little bit.

“We will enjoy seeing each other, hopefully put on a good show for the fans, challenge each other and at the end we can sit and chill out for a little bit.”















Rooney̢۪s outrageous effort was similar to a free-kick he scored against Stoke in January 2017, which saw him become United̢۪s leading goalscorer with 250 goals, surpassing Sir Bobby Charlton̢۪s all-time record.


It was also similar to Juninho’s memorable effort for Lyon against Barcelona in a 2009 last 16 Champions League tie.


Rooney has been playing in MLS since last summer. Having ended his 13-year spell at Old Trafford with 253 goals in 2017, he rejoined boyhood club Everton before moving to DC United.






Ever since Wayne Rooney's arrival at the club in 2018, DC United has become a different club. After a 0-1 road victory over the Columbus Crew on Thursday night, DC United moved to first place in the MLS's Eastern Conference, showing that they will be a force to reckon with in the 2019 season.
