"Manchester United" academy graduate Mason Greenwood scored his first goal for the main team on Wednesday, when in a friendly match against "Leeds United" he sent the ball into the net. After the match, "Red Devils" coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer praised the 17-year-old Englishman and stated that he could receive opportunities to appear in the main team in the upcoming season. "We are happy for his goal. It is very important for strikers to feel the taste of scoring goals. We knew that he is capable of scoring goals, but the first one should take off the extra weight off Mason's shoulders. He moves well on the field and understands the game. This guy will become a very good footballer. Mason has enough talent to become a player for "Manchester United". If he manages to avoid injuries and maintain the same level of professionalism, then I have no doubt that he will take advantage of this opportunity," - said O. G. Solskjaer after the friendly match. The Norwegian also revealed that the young striker could have a chance in the first "Premier League" matches, where "Man Utd" will face the "Chelsea" players. "He definitely has a chance to appear in the first "Premier League" matches. He is capable of constantly creating danger near the opponents' penalty area. I do not want to say that such opportunities do not exist. There is a very good chance for Mason to appear on the field if he continues to maintain the same level of play. It is difficult to leave players on the bench when they demonstrate such a game," - added the "Man Utd" strategist.
