Getafe coach Bordalas: Greenwood magnificent for Copa win

Getafe coach Jose Bordalas was eager to praise Mason Greenwood after their Copa del Rey win at Espanyol.

Luis Milla struck late in the tie to help Getafe win 1-0.

On Manchester United forward Greenwood, Bordalas said: "Yes, of course Mason is a magnificent player, he showed it especially in the second half. He has made worthwhile plays and the team in general has taken a step forward, he has improved in the second half.

"The team had the best chances until we found the goal.

"We have gone from less to more and the team has finished really well.
