Man United fans are all saying the same thing after what Wayne Rooney did in the MU Foundation charity match at Old Trafford.

The Manchester United Foundation hosted a charity football match in which Man United legends faced Celtic, with the funds going towards the Foundation.

A team including the likes of Dimitar Berbatov, Paul Scholes, Michael Carrick and Antonio Valencia drew 1-1 with Celtic before the away side won 5-4 on penalties.

However, it was Rooney who provided the moment of the game for fans as he bent a free kick past Artur Boruc and into the top corner from the edge of the area.

The clip of his goal quickly went viral on social media, with supporters left stunned by what the United legend is still capable of pulling off.

United's all-time top goalscorer showed fans what they have been missing since his departure as he rolled back the years at the stadium he called home for 13 years.

Now managing Plymouth Argyle in the Championship, Rooney left Old Trafford in 2017, and fans flocked to see his return on the pitch on 7 September.

Rooney's list of personal records from his career is astounding - as United's top goalscorer of all time, England's second-most-capped player, and England's second-top goalscorer.

With his vintage display at Old Trafford, fans were given a strong hit of nostalgia in a reminder of just how good the United legend was - and still is.

As a result, many supporters flocked to social media to rave about his performance, with the free-kick the highlight of his display - and many fans insisted he could still do a job in Erik ten Hag's side.
