Mason Greenwood’s recent highlights reel against Atletico Madrid has gone viral after the 22-year-old starred for Getafe against Diego Simeone’s side.<\/p>\n

The former England international is currently on-loan in Spain after it was previously decided he would play no part in Manchester United’s immediate future.<\/p>\n
This came after criminal allegations against him of attempted rape, assault and coercive control were dropped. The 22-year-old denied all the charges.<\/p>\n
