The stellar afternoon’s work enjoyed by Getafe star Mason Greenwood on Saturday saw the Englishman set a new career-best benchmark.
Wide-man Greenwood was afforded his latest starting berth earlier today, as Getafe played host to basement-dwellers Almería in a La Liga clash.
And, over the course of the 90 minutes, the 22-year-old proved himself the star of the show.
En route to an eventual 3-1 triumph, Greenwood played a direct hand in all three of his side’s goals.
As much came by way of a brace, as well as the assist for Jaime Mata’s result-clinching 2nd-half strike.
All told, this took Greenwood’s tally for the La Liga campaign to a none-too-shabby 14 goal contributions, by way of eight goals, and six assists.
It was upon opening his account on Saturday, though, that the talented attacker secured for himself a new personal benchmark.
As revealed by statisticians Opta, after finding the net inside the half-hour mark against Almería, Greenwood broke his record for goal contributions in a single league campaign, which previously stood at 11, with Manchester United.
