Wayne Rooney was the man of the match last night as he led his team to a comfortable victory over Leverkusen.
The striker put United ahead with a fortuitous goal that had the
German side furiously appealing for offside. United had to overcome a
minor set- back when Leverkusen captain Simon Rolfes equalised early in
the second half before Moyes’ side stamped their authority in the game.
Robin Van Persie ‘s magnificent volley put United back in front
before Rooney turned on the style by scoring by scoring United third and
setting up Antonio Valencia for the fourth.
A late second goal by Omer Toprak could not take the shine off the
David Moyes’ men as the United Manager secured his first win in his
first European campaign for United.
Rooney was easily United’s nest player on the night, he proved too
powerful for the German side to overcome and showed his quality by
getting his team-mates involved.
Rooney is now United’s fourth highest goal scorer of all-time with
200 goals and looks certain to surpass Bobby Charlton’s record of 249
goals.
