Rooney revels in league landmark

MANCHESTER - Everton star Wayne Rooney said becoming only the second player to score 200 English Premier League goals when he netted in the 1-1 draw with Manchester City on Monday night was a sweet moment.

The 31-year-old, who joined Alan Shearer in reaching the landmark, added he was sure fans from his former club Manchester United would have enjoyed it too.

Rooney rejoined Everton, the club where he made his name as a teenager, from United this summer after he became a peripheral figure there under Jose Mourinho.
