’10 Duels won, 1 Assist’ – Mason Greenwood puts up a ‘WARRIOR’ performance vs Real Sociedad as Man United star becomes a constant threat with 75% dribbling

Getafe’s 1-1 tie with Real Sociedad featured an assist from Mason Greenwood, who was back to his best.

The 22-year-old has been performing well for the Liga squad, but he hasn’t scored or provided an assist since the beginning of the previous month.

Each side had seven shots on goal in a draw. But with 61% of the possession, the visitors were in the lead.

The United academy graduate was awarded a score of 7.3 on Sofascore for his afternoon’s work. The highest-rated for his team and joint highest of the game.

The biggest contribution by the Englishman by far was his assist for Getafe’s equaliser. He produced a sublime cross for Juanmi Latasa to head home from close range.

It was his sixth assist of the campaign, as he continues to be a key contributor to anything positive Getafe do in attack.

The Bradford native provided one key pass and completed 67% of his 15 passes during the game. He crossed the ball three times with the goal being the one time that the pass found its intended target.

Greenwood did have a frustrating time in front of goal in a game of few chances. He did not have any shots on or off target but he did have one shot that was blocked by the resolute Basque defence.

Nonetheless, the Englishman was a constant threat in the side of Sociedad as he had 40 touches and successfully completed three out of his four dribble attempts.

Greenwood also showed his defensive strength as he won an incredible 10 out of his 15 ground duels as he battled hard for his side.

The team from San Sebastian struggled to deal with the United man as he was fouled six times in the game.

Getafe, who remained ninth in the rankings and are still on track for an outstanding top-half finish, drew for the thirteenth time this season.

When Greenwood and his team visit Almeria on Saturday afternoon, they’ll be looking to improve on their impressive performance.
