Rooney hits 150th EPL goal

Wayne Rooney scored his 150th English Premier League goal, the equalizer in Manchester United's 3-2 win over Hull City, which had taken a 2-0 lead after 13 minutes.

"I always thought we'd go on and win it," said Man United coach David Moyes. "What we've got here is the capability and I don't think there would have been one supporter who thought that the game was over (when we went two down), I certainly didn't."

Rooney assisted on Chris Smalling's header to pull Man United within one and James Chester, who had scored Hull City's first, hit an own goal for the decider.

"It was a great volley," Moyes said of Rooney's goal. "We know that Wayne's capable of that and that he can score all sorts of goals."
