Wayne Rooney equals Bobby Charlton's England scoring record
Saturday 5 September 2015 22:12, UK
Wayne Rooney equalled Bobby Charlton's all-time England record of 49 goals after scoring against San Marino - but must wait to break it.
The England captain sent goalkeeper Aldo Simoncini the wrong way as he slotted home a 13th minute penalty in the European Qualifiers Group E clash.
Rooney, who scored his first goal for England against Macedonia in 2003, matched Charlton's record, which had stood alone since May 1970.
But, in a move that surprised many in Serravalle, Roy Hodgson substituted his skipper in the 58th minute, denying him to chance to bring up his 50 in the 6-0 win.
