Greenwood hits brace in Getafe Copa del Rey rout
Mason Greenwood scored twice as Getafe hammered sixth-tier Tardienta 12-0 in the Copa del Rey first round on Wednesday.
The LaLiga side came close to matching the all-time largest win in the competition's history, Real Murcia's 14-0 triumph over Cieza Promesas in 1992.
Greenwood joined Getafe on loan from Manchester United in the summer, with the English club deciding he should continue his career elsewhere following an internal investigation after charges against him including rape and assault were dropped in February.
Oscar Rodriguez scored a hat-trick for Getafe in the rout which is Spain's biggest cup victory in the 21st century and a club record triumph in any competition.
FULLTIME!
