  • Assist: Joe Cole. "Still on the right-hand side having taken the corner, Cole curled an inch-perfect cross between defence and keeper, leaving Rooney's task of side-footing home an easy one. Not one who likes to score simple goals, Rooney did his best to make it look more tricky by turning his foot round and awkwardly nudging it past Timmer with the outside of his boot." Wayne Rooney12th of 53 goals. Right-footed from 5 yards., 37' 36:48
