3. Records tumble for Rooney
Wayne Rooney became the player to score the most number of goals for one club, overtaking Thierry Henry. The Manchester United striker has come under a lot of flak this season but he continued his goal scoring form and made it four games in a row in which he has found the back of the net, the first time he has achieved this feature in the last four years.
This was Rooney’s first goal at Anfield since 2005 and this should provide the England captain a lot of confidence going into the final part of the season. Manchester United might not be scoring a lot of goals but if they can keep other teams out, they have the ability to nick games and could well make it into the top four at the end of the season.
