This floating free kick from Wayne Rooney's younger brother is a beauty

Wayne Rooney isn't the only member of his family who can score killer free kicks.

While Wayne has been struggling to find a regular role at Manchester United, his younger brother John Rooney is making things happen at Wrexham. Beautiful things like this:

Alright, to be fair, there are about five divisions between the Wayne and his younger brother, but that is a lovely free kick any way you slice it. It seems to hang in the air forever before it nicks the underside of the crossbar.

If we didn't know any better, we'd think John was doing his best impression of Wayne's record-setting free kick a couple weeks ago. That excellent free kick cemented Wayne Rooney's place in Manchester United history as the club's greatest goal-scorer.

Either way, well done to 26-year-old John, whose effort lifted Wrexham over Guiseley, 3-1, and was his 11th goal of the season.
