Mason Greenwood missed a penalty against Athletic Bilbao on Friday as Getafe failed to mount a comeback against their nine-man opposition.
WHAT HAPPENED?
Manchester United loanee Greenwood was handed a perfect chance to pull a goal back for Getafe against nine men when a penalty was awarded in the 88th minute. However, he saw his spot-kick saved by Unai Simon, and Bilbao were able to see out a 2-0 win.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Bilbao had taken the 2-0 lead through a brace from Inaki Williams. However, in the second half, both Yeray Alvarez and Aitor Paredes were sent off, leaving them to finish the game with nine men. A goal from Greenwood would have sparked a grandstand finish but Simon's heroic stop proved vital.
DID YOU KNOW?
Greenwood has been linked with a move to Juventus after a fine season in Spain, in which he has posted a personal best in terms of league goal contributions. His miss on Friday, though, will undoubtedly come as a blow.
WHAT NEXT?
Getafe are currently 10th in La Liga and play Cadiz on Sunday, when Greenwood will hope to get back amongst the goals.
