Wayne Rooney was on target again for Everton in pre-season, while Sevilla suffered a surprise defeat as clubs around Europe continued their preparations for the new campaign.

ROONEY ON TARGET AS EVERTON HELD

After a netting a long-range stunner in his second debut for Everton, Rooney found the net from a shorter distance this time around against Genk, but his goal will fuel hope he can build a rapport with fellow new signing Sandro Ramirez.
