WATCH: Wayne Rooney scores from inside his own half for DC United


Not for the first time in his career, Wayne Rooney struck from long distance as his goal was enough for DC United to secure a 1-0 MLS win.

Rooney's audacious effort came from fully 70 yards as he caught the Orlando goalkeeper napping to score what proved to be the winner in the 10th minute of the match.

It's not the first time Rooney has score from around the halfway line - in fact he's done it for every club he's played for in his career.
