Stoke City put in a hard fight against Mourinho's Manchester United as they maintained a lead they obtained from a Juan Mata own goal.

But Rooney snatched an equalizer in the 94th minute to secure a point and ensure the match didn't end without them having a point.

But there's more to celebrate for Wayne Rooney because his goal put on into the Manchester United record books. Rooney's injury-time goal made it his 250th goal in 546 games for Manchester United putting him higher than Sir Bobby Charlton who scored 249 goals for Manchester United in 758 games.

He doesn't plan to chart a course like his colleague Ranieri of Leicester City did. Pep recently banned the use of mobile phones, and he also banned lateness to training. Every violation comes with a corresponding fine, ask Benjamin Mendy. Pep plans to repeat his outstanding triumph like he did last season.
