Wayne Rooney netted a fantastic goal and Manchester United moves to 5th round in FA cup against Portsmouth. Rooney comes in as a substitute and slots in a goal from Ryan Giggs pull-back at 76'. And then at 83' Rooney from 25 yards out, netted the cheekiest of chips in off the bar. What a skill and goal. Then 87' Portsmouth netted a reflective goal from Pedro Mendes. But that didn't stop MU to a victory. Rooney as scored 3 goals in the past 2 matches, and that's a good sign of him back to his form. He is still the best player United has so far. Congrats Wayne Rooney!

Wayne Rooney was an inspired substitute today. He definately changed the game. His first goal came from some great passing especially by Larsson to Giggs, who fed the ball to the hungry young Rooney. But his second was pure sublime skill, all down to his individual greatness. David James could just stand and watch. What a player he is!
