WAYNE ROONEY rolled back the years by scoring a brilliant overhead kick in front of a live TV audience.
The Manchester United and England legend, 40, recently appeared on A League of Their Own.
During the show, Rooney took to a mini football pitch and received a pass from presenter Romesh Ranganathan.
The former striker instantly controlled the fizzed ball, before flicking it over his head.
Rooney then unleashed a sensational overhead kick into the empty net, stunning all in attendance.
Ranganathan ran up to him, with the pair hugging in celebration.

Wazza’s team-mates Jamie Redknapp and Alex Brooker then also gleefully jogged over.
The strike was a throwback to one of Rooney’s most famous goals – the stunning overhead kick in Man Utd’s 2-1 win over noisy neighbours City in February 2011.
After Nani‘s cross was deflected into his path in the 78th minute of the derby clash, Rooney produced an incredible overhead kick to win it.
In May 2012, the goal was voted the greatest in Premier League history.

Rooney said at the time: “I grew up watching the Premier League so to be voted the best goal in the history of the Premier League is a great feeling.
“There’s so many good goals in that shortlist, goals that I watched in my living room as a kid: Alan Shearer‘s goal, Paolo Di Canio‘s, Tony Yeboah’s, David Beckham‘s.
“To be competing with them and winning is a great honour for me and something I’m very proud of.
“I’d like to say a big thank you to all the fans that voted for me.”
Rooney has focused on punditry work this season, having been sacked as Plymouth Argyle boss last December.
The former England captain has become a regular on Match of the Day, while he also launched his own “Wayne Rooney Show”.
