Rooney: My greatest goal
QUOTE
After his moment of genius in the Manchester derby, Wayne Rooney was remarkably matter-of-fact when talking to the TV cameras about his winning goal.
He did concede, however, that the spectacular strike was the best goal he's ever scored.
“Yeah, I think so," he told Sky Sports. "I just tried to get into a good position for when Nani crossed the ball. I saw it come into the box and I thought, ‘Why not?’. So I tried it [an overhead kick] and thankfully it went into the top corner.
“Nine times out of 10 they go over the crossbar or wide, but thankfully today it went into the top corner.
“It’s instinctive. You don’t have time to think about what you’re going to do.
“I scored one [an overhead kick] in school but to be fair, it’s my first one since I started playing professionally. I’m delighted.”
His joy was as much down to the game’s result, though, as it was his own performance.
“After dropping three points, it was important we kept that gap between ourselves and City. It was a close game but I think we created the best chances and deserved to win.
“After last weekend, I think we felt we owed the fans a good performance and three points. That keeps us on top of the league, so we’re thankful for that.”
Holy hell at Rooneys goal man!! I didnt know he was capable of that. I thought it was berba and i was stunned for like 5 secs after seeing Rooney dash off after scoring.
Everything was perfect ; the floated cross,the leap by rooney,the way he connected with the ball,the power,placing and motion. Perfection!
actually it wasnt me, i praised him one since i tot he was in charge of that game, then alien corrected me, after that 2nd half their floodgates opened...so it was alien's fault trolololo
