The former Manchester United captain became only the second player in the league's history to reach the milestone Wayne Rooney has joined Alan Shearer in becoming just the second player to net 200 goals in the Premier League with his strike against Manchester City. The former Manchester United captain finished calmly to put Everton 1-0 up at the Etihad Stadium, marking his second goal in as many games in the top flight since rejoining the Toffees. And in doing so he passed a milestone that only Shearer before him has reached since the Premier League was born back in 1992-93. Rooney has now scored 200 goals in the division, while Shearer remains the man to beat with 260 for Blackburn and Newcastle United during his glittering career.
