Wayne Rooney equals Denis Law's Manchester United goals record

Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney has equalled Denis Law's record of 237 goals for the club.

The England international scored the only goal of the game in his side's 1-0 win over CSKA Moscow in the Champions League.

"Denis Law is a legend at this club and to equal his goalscoring record is a huge honour for me," Rooney wrote on Twitter after the game.

Rooney is now United's second-highest goalscorer of all time along with Law, trailing Bobby Charlton by 12 strikes.

The former Everton man became England's record scorer earlier this year when he put away his 50th international goal.
