Wayne Rooney mocks knockout video with goal celebration as Man United down Spurs
WAYNE ROONEY celebrated scoring against Tottenham in style by mocking a viral video of him boxing in his kitchen.
Wayne Rooney (right) mocks being 'knocked out' after scoring against Tottenham
The Manchester United striker bagged his side's third at Old Trafford and punched the air before falling to the floor.
His celebration referred to a video published today that shows Sunderland player Phil Bardsley appearing to knock out the England captain.
The pair were boxing in Rooney's kitchen when Bardsley caught Rooney with a jab.
Rooney hit the deck.
But it appears it may have been a joke and he mocked the video in typical cheeky style.
After the game he said: "I've just been focussed on the game, it's more interesting for other people rather than for me.
"You've seen today, I've done a professional job and helped my team win 3-0."
Terrific finish from @WayneRooney and a even better celebration.
