MANCHESTER, England – Paul Scholes scored his first goal since ending his short-lived retirement to help Manchester United to a 3-0 Premier League win over Bolton on Saturday.
In the second match of his comeback, Scholes turned in Wayne Rooney’s cross-shot in the 45th minute for his first goal since August 2010.
Danny Welbeck made it 2-0 in the 74th and Michael Carrick completed the scoring with seven minutes remaining as United drew even with leader Manchester City, which plays Wigan in Monday’s match.
Rooney took a first-half penalty kick that was saved by goalkeeper Adam Bogdan.
