Wayne Rooney couldn’t resist tweeting Manchester City fans after his goal at the Etihad

Wayne Rooney's goal at the Etihad on Monday evening helped Everton secure a point against Manchester City.

Booed by City fans throughout the first half for his 13-year association with Manchester United, Rooney fired Ronald Koeman's side ahead ten minutes from the break. The 31-year-old clearly enjoyed his moment, celebrating the goal by looking in the direction of the home support and cupping his ears. As has been pointed out by a number of people on Twitter, Rooney's goal came at the same end to a goal he scored in United's 3-2 Manchester derby victory in December 2012. City's supporters - three in particular - reacted to both goals in pretty much the same way... https://twitter.com/MourinhoMindset/status/899749577825374212 After the game, Rooney took to Twitter to express his disappointment that Everton couldn't hold on for the three points. Despite playing with a man more than City for most of the game after Kyle Walker's red card, Raheem Sterling equalised late in the second half. https://twitter.com/WayneRooney/status/899752366576201728 Shortly after this tweet, Rooney also shared the image of himself celebrating his goal in front of the City fans. 'Always nice to see a few familiar faces,' he tweeted, along with  laughing face and waving hand emojis. https://twitter.com/WayneRooney/status/899753106602426368 In the hours since, the tweet has attracted close to 100,000 retweets - many of which coming from those who support Manchester's other club.
