Wayne Rooney has done it again.
A man who has knack for the spectacular, he may have scored one of the best goals of his career at Goodison Park on Wednesday night which was the third goal in his first ever hat-trick for the club.
With Big Sam watching from the stands, Rooney showed him exactly why the Everton side should be built around him when he punished Joe Hart for a questionable clearance with one of the sweetest strikes of a football you will ever see... From inside his own half.
While we can't show you the clip for copyright reasons, you can see here just how far out he was.
As BT Sport were showing the match live, Twitter exploded as soon as everyone realised what the hell had just happened.

To be fair David Moyes always felt he would get the best out of Wayne Rooney

He may be ageing but Wayne Rooney still has great quality. The same can't be said of Joe Hart.
Some goal.— Jonathan Northcroft (@JNorthcroft) November 29, 2017

That was absolutely brilliant! Wayne Rooney completes his hat-trick with a first time shot from 70 yards. Remember, everyone: he's finished.

Take a bow, Wayne. Take several, long, elaborate bows.
