England captain Wayne Rooney is on the brink of history in San Marino as he stands one short of Sir Bobby Charlton's national goals record - and believes he can still emulate the Manchester United legend and win a major international tournament.
Rooney captains England on Saturday knowing victory will secure their place in the Euro 2016 finals in France next summer.
And while the 29-year-old will delight in the personal milestone of eclipsing Charlton's tally of 49 goals, he insists winning a trophy would give him more pleasure after he missed out with England at Euro 2004 and Euro 2012 as well as in the World Cups in 2006, 2010 and last summer in Brazil.
