da bet7： If there were any Everton fans that were unsure about Wayne Rooney’s return this summer, then they have probably made their minds up today after the forward scored in a 1-0 victory over Stoke City.
da realbet： The England international, who began his career at Everton before joining Manchester United as a teenager in 2004, return to Goodison Park from Old Trafford earlier in the transfer window.
Rooney was named in Ronald Koeman’s starting lineup for the afternoon kickoff against Stoke.
The 31-year-old provided an attacking threat alongside Sandro Ramirez, who was one of five summer signings to make their Premier League debuts for the Toffees.
Rooney was the only scorer of the game as he headed home after latching onto Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s cross into the danger area in stoppage time of the first half.
It was as though it was written in the stars for the ex-United star to score in his first league game in an Everton shirt since 2004, and he did not deviate from the script.
Many have suggested that Rooney is past his best, but Everton fans were delighted with the forward’s contribution on the opening weekend of the season.
