Charlton Hands Rooney Trophy

Wayne Rooney was presented with a trophy by Sir Bobby Charlton ahead of Manchester United’s FA Cup fourth round tie with Wigan after becoming the club’s all-time record goalscorer last weekend.

Rooney's added-time free kick at Stoke took the 31-year-old's tally of United goals to 250, breaking the record he previously shared with Charlton.

Rooney captained United for Sunday's visit of Wigan and was applauded by team-mates and supporters during a special presentation moments before the game kicked off.

Charlton, whose previous mark of 249 goals had stood since 1973, handed the England captain a gold trophy in honour of his achievement.

Rooney had drawn level with Charlton on 249 when he scored in United's 4-0 FA Cup third round win over Reading earlier this month.

His record-breaking strike came in the fourth-minute of added time at the bet365 Stadium clinching a 1-1 draw against Stoke and a hard-fought point for United.
