WATCH: Man Utd keeper Romero breaks Guinness World Record

Manchester United goalkeeper Sergio Romero has made the Guinness World Book of Records.

Romero has become a Guinness World Record holder by scoring the most goals from the halfway line in 60 seconds.

The Argentine shot-stopper managed to score twenty times from the halfway line in one minute.

Romero was among three Man United stars to attempt to break the previous record of five, along with Phil Jones and Ander Herrera.

Jones also made a creditable attempt, scoring 19 in the title attempt organised by club partner MoPlay.

Meanwhile, Herrera finished third with 14 goals, adding: "I didn't expect it was going to be that tough."

Challenge-winning Romero also alluded to the difficulty of the challenge, saying: "I need some water and oxygen."
