Here’s Mason Greenwood’s First Goal with Marseille!
Mason Greenwood had a dream debut, not only as the main attacking force for Marseille and Brest’s biggest headache but also because his Ligue 1 debut came with a stunning goal.
The talented English player needed just three minutes to score his first goal in French football, following a run down the right flank to finally beat Bizot, Brest’s goalkeeper, with a powerful right-footed shot that marked the first goal in an unexpected rout against Brest.
Roberto De Zerbi's Marseille had a dream debut in Ligue 1, thrashing Brest 1-5 away, with an extraordinary performance from Mason Greenwood, who was a real headache for the home defense.
The first half was marked by total dominance from De Zerbi's team, who only needed 3 minutes for Mason Greenwood's talent to make its mark on the scoreboard, with a powerful shot that left Bizot with no chance. Later, Luis Henrique would score the second goal of the match in the 26th minute, in a play that only foretold worse things for the hosts.
Another play by Mason Greenwood led to a penalty for Marseille, which the Englishman took advantage of to complete his double in the 31st minute. However, Mahdi Camara would cut the deficit with a stunning goal in the last moments of the first half at 45+6.
In the second half, Marseille grew even stronger and increased their lead on the scoreboard, with another goal from Luis Henrique in the 48th minute and an excellent penalty conversion by Elye Wahi in the 69th minute, once again set up by Greenwood, sealing the 1-5 rout for the visiting team that aspires to everything.
With this result, Marseille takes the top spot in Ligue 1 in the opening round of the French championship and aims to be one of the major contenders in the competition.
