No goal for Wayne Rooney in 120th, final England appearance


Such was the debate stirred by England's most capped outfield player being recalled after two years off the team to have this ceremonial farewell, 15 years after his debut.
"The FA are celebrating players who have left their mark on international football for England — it never happened in the past, which it should have," said Rooney, a Premier League and Champions League title-winner with Manchester United.
"It hasn't taken way form what Gareth and the players are trying to do," he said. "Hopefully in a few years' time some of the players will be getting a similar night for their achievements. It was a great touch for me." By the time Rooney entered the game as former Manchester United teammate Jesse Lingard's replacement in the 58th minute, England had done enough for the victory. Lingard and Trent Alexander-Arnold scored within 104 seconds of each other in the first half. As England's record-scorer bid farewell, Alexander-Arnold was joined by striker Callum Wilson in getting their first goals for England.
