Mason Greenwood continues his hot scoring streak by netting in friendly defeat by Stoke

Mason Greenwood was on the scoresheet as a Manchester United XI lost 4-3 to Stoke City in a behind closed doors friendly at Old Trafford on Wednesday.

Greenwood was left out of England’s squad to play Hungary, Andorra and Poland over the next week so Ole Gunnar Solskjær was keen to keep him sharp after he scored against Wolves last Sunday.

Greenwood, who also scored in the opening two fixtures against Leeds and Southampton, started out on the right flank against Stoke and was partnered by Edinson Cavani who had his call up to the Uruguay squad cancelled owing to Covid quarantine concerns.
