Mason Greenwood Receives Straight Red Card For Dissent In Getafe's Defeat

Getafe’s manager, Jose Bordalas, revealed the details of Mason Greenwood’s red card incident during the team’s 2-0 loss to Rayo Vallecano. The Manchester United loanee, frustrated by perceived fouls, engaged in a heated exchange with referee Jorge Figueroa Vazquez, leading to a straight red card for dissent.

Getafe, already reduced to ten men, finished the match with only eight players on the field. Greenwood, visibly upset, expressed his discontent with the referee’s decisions, and replays suggested the use of explicit language, with Greenwood seemingly saying, “F*** off.” Bordalas clarified that Greenwood swore at the referee in English, stating, “Don’t f*** with me.” Despite the strong language, the manager emphasized that Greenwood did not insult anyone.

The challenging match for Getafe also saw Juanmi Latasa receiving a red card in the first half, and Damian Suarez was later shown a straight red card, exacerbating their struggles. This incident coincides with reports of Barcelona considering a £40 million move for Greenwood, with Atletico Madrid also expressing interest.
