WITH Mason Greenwood all four sides are of top quality. an actor from another planet GetafeAzulón who respects a different guy in his squad who plays another role and before Grenade, Loser at the Coliseum (2-0) he showed his full range to keep José Bordalás’ squad from securing a spot in Europe.
You see very few players like the British these days. naturally unsteady. Vertical, direct, stylish and confident. a game that breaks lines and is fueled by youth, unsettling nearly every opponent with a class Granada finds tough to contain as they handle the body of the Manchester United loanee.
And Greenwood was the one who opened the scoring for Getafe about twenty minutes in. he produced a beautifully crafted strike that could have been a masterpiece. Ignasi Miquel barely touched the ball Vaseline on Augusto Batalla to deflect from the edge of the area.

The sequence for the goal was different. It stood as one of many highlights this term and it won’t be missed by bigger clubs than Getafe. The Briton controlled the ball at the center, moved forward with calm, and beat the Argentine goalkeeper with a composed finish. He sped past Gonzalo Villar, faced Carlos Neva, and weaved through six defenders, including Ignasi Miquel. The shot found the net for a 1-0 lead.
This burst was supported by the entire team, a first half full of energy, and four new elements compared to the earlier setup. Yellu debuted in midfield, replacing the suspended Milla. He remained composed; Jaime Mata shifted higher with Enes Ünal; youth product Jordi Martín replaced Aleñá and proved sharp on the left wing; and Juan Iglesias played for Carmona on the right wing.
HE GrenadeIt was a showcase of Greenwood’s talent, with the same front line except Arezo for Lucas Boyé. Aside from another standout, Bryan Zaragoza, the home side were stunned by Getafe. The only player likely to score from outside the area was Zaragoza, grazing the right post past David Soria.
But Granada did not have the day. Batalla, a superb goalkeeper, helped prevent a second Getafe goal with a point-blank save. Mayor of Borja. Before the break, the Argentinian keeper misplaced a ball under pressure from the blue attackers, and Mayoral pounced to score his fourteenth of the season, tying top scorers Bellingham and Dovbyk.
Granada found life again after the break with a penalty converted by Jordi Martín. (VAR checked) Uzuni delivered the assist. Alexander Medina’s men missed chances to reassert themselves as the first act faded from view.

Getafe steadied, played with risk, and came away with the win. It all rode on Greenwood, who needed just 45 minutes to seal the result, erasing Granada’s threat and placing Bordalás’ team in the middle of the table, seven points off Europe with a game in hand. Granada, meanwhile, remained in the danger zone. Greenwood spoke with a decisive voice and carried the Nasrid squad to the brink of defeat.
