Wayne Rooney has learned how to head goals after much practice at Carrington and it's reaping dividends for the red-hot Manchester United striker.
His headed double in Milan was followed up by two nods of approval to crosses from Antonio Valencia against West Ham and it's inspired a new market from Bet365.
10/1 against the Red Devils idol scoring with his head against Aston Villa at Wembley isn't the worst bet in the world.
Bet365 spokesman Steve Freeth "Rooney had struggled for goals with his head prior to this season, but this campaign he’s been leaping like a salmon – although Sunday may be different with Messrs Dunne and Collins being no mugs in the air."
The bet is for 90 minutes only and, despite being worthy of a small flutter, we prefer the odds on Rooney scoring with his head in South Africa.
You may have to wait to collect but 15/8 to net a header at any time during the finals has got to be worth a bit of a punt.
We like those odds and will be having a bit of a plunge - hopefully England will go far in the tournament, giving us a minimum of five games to collect and the knockout ties can always go to extra-time as well.
In his current form, it's a decent wager.
