Wayne Rooney scores for Everton on return to Manchester City after nutmegging Etihad keeper Ederson
The former United striker becomes only the second player in history to score 200 Premier League goals
WAYNE ROONEY has scored his 200th Premier League goal to give Everton an early advantage against Manchester City.
The striker carries a deadly curse against the Citizens - he also scored his 50th and 150th league goals against them.
Rooney is now only the second player to score 200 Premier League goals - along with veteran Alan Shearer, who has 260.
The former United striker confidently side-footed home the strike following an assist across the box from Calvert-Lewin.
The Brazilian shot-stopper was left slouched on the ground as the shot rattled the woodwork and flew into the back of the net.
A defensive error from Sane led to Everton snatching possession and charging into City's final third.
Rooney now tallies 183 goals for Manchester United and 17 for Everton.
Shortly after Everton's opener, Kyle Walker received his second booking of the game to take the home side down to ten men for the remainder.
Rooney has now scored 12 goals against the Citizens in all competitions, 11 of which have come from Manchester Derbie's.
The homegrown Everton striker also scored in the Toffees opening fixture against Stoke - making this his second goal in as many games in the top flight since rejoining the club.
Behind the striker in the Premier League solitary goal rankings is Andy Cole, with 187 goals. Frank Lampard comes in fourth after netting 177 times from midfield.
