Wayne Rooney equals Sir Bobby Charlton’s England goalscoring record (Video)

Even stevens...

Wayne Rooney has equalled Sir Bobby Charlton’s record of 49 goals for England, against San Marino on Saturday evening.

England were awarded a somewhat dubious penalty on 13 minutes and Rooney stepped up to calmly slot home the opener to make it 0-1.

If Rooney doesn’t add to his tally, he will have perfectly equaled Charlton’s record of 49 goals in 106 games.
