England 2-0 Switzerland: Record-breaker Rooney seals victory for Three Lions

Wayne Rooney became England's all-time record goalscorer by netting a late penalty in a 2-0 win over Switzerland on Tuesday.

The Three Lions had struggled during a dismal opening 45 minutes at Wembley but Harry Kane broke the deadlock with a fine left-footed finish midway through the second half.

However, the night ultimately belonged to Rooney, who converted a penalty won by Raheem Sterling to break Bobby Charlton's goalscoring record with his 50th strike for his country.

Victory, of course, mattered little to England, who had already sealed their place at Euro 2016, but their 2-0 triumph did see them maintain the one remaining 100 per cent record across the nine qualification groups.
