Fergie hails 'great threat' Rooney

Alex Ferguson hailed the wonder of Wayne Rooney after the Manchester United striker fired home the last-gasp winner which makes the Red Devils slight favourites to reach the Champions League final.

After dragging United back on level terms against AC Milan with an instinctive second-half strike from Paul Scholes’ inspired pass, Rooney then latched on to a Ryan Giggs through ball before lashing home a phenomenal first-time effort which sealed a 3-2 first-leg win.
