Mason Greenwood isolates himself from Marseille teammates during shootout

Mason Greenwood has become the focus of a social media storm after Marseille's exit from the Coupe de France. He opened the scoring with a penalty two minutes into the match, and the game finished 2-2 before going to a shootout; he stepped up first and converted his spot-kick.

Rather than returning to the centre circle to join the usual line of players arm-in-arm, footage on X shows Greenwood drifting toward the touchline and standing several yards apart while his nine team-mates remained grouped in the middle. His body language appeared dejected, prompting questions about his connection with the squad.

Marseille lost the shootout 4-3, with Arsenal loanee Ethan Nwaneri missing the decisive kick and ending their cup hopes. With new manager Habib Beye in charge, attention will turn to squad chemistry as Marseille prepare to face Toulouse away in Ligue 1 this weekend.
