Mason Greenwood has spoken for the first time since breaking his goalscoring duck for Spanish side Getafe at the weekend.<\/p>\n
The on-loan Manchester United forward helped his current team earn a 2-2 draw at LaLiga rivals Celta Vigo on Sunday by tapping home from close-range to put the visitors 2-1 ahead on 33 minutes.<\/p>\n
His effort had cancelled out Borja Mayoral’s early opener, but Celta twice hit back through Jonathan Bamba and Jorgen Strand Larsen.<\/p>\n
Domingos Duarte’s first-half dismissal for two yellow-card offences had left Getafe with 10 men but they held on for a point as they now sit 11th with 10 points from nine matches..<\/p>\n
Greenwood’s goal came in his fifth match for the Madrid-based outfit and he took to Instagram on Monday to express his emotions.<\/p>\n
