Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney's partnership at Manchester United from 2004 to 2009 was a sight to behold, with the two players developing at an incredible rate, and dovetailing to perfection.
This was never more obvious than on this day in 2007.
Already 1-0 to the good against Sam Allardyce's Bolton in a St. Patrick's Day clash, the two young stars got a second with a counter-attack right out of the top drawer.
From the touches to the passes to Rooney's fine finish, it perfectly encapsulated everything good about United at the time.
United went onto win 4-1, and continue their march towards a first title in four years as Sir Alex Ferguson created his latest great Old Trafford side, with Ronaldo and Rooney at the heart of it.
