Former Manchester United and England captain Wayne Rooney opened his account for DC United in MLS.
Rooney scored his first DC goal as the MLS side defeated Colorado Rapids 2-1 on Saturday.
United and England’s all-time leading scorer, Rooney found the back of the net in the 33rd minute after receiving a pass from Luciano Acosta and guiding the ball through the legs of Rapids goalkeeper and former Red Devils team-mate Tim Howard.
The 32-year-old Rooney has made four appearances for DC since arriving from Premier League outfit Everton.
