English
soccer star Wayne Rooney reintroduced himself to
the Everton fans in the best way possible on Thursday - by scoring on
his second debut as they beat Gor Mahia 2 - 1.
Rooney, who
left the Toffees 13 years ago for Manchester United, returned on
Thursday for a pre-season friendly against Gor Mahia in Tanzania. The 31-year-old started the game up front for Everton, where he broke the deadlock with a spectacular strike moments before half time.
The goal was immediately cancelled out by Jacques Tuyisenge, who bagged an equaliser for his side with a great headed effort.
Kieran Dowell hit the crossbar from a short free-kick
before moments later, nine minutes from time, he smashed home a left-footed
effort from 25 yards to secure a 2-1 win.
