The Marseille striker Mason Greenwood would have spit on the star of Aston Villa, Amadou Onana, during a friendly match, which sparked an altercation with Tyrone Mings.

The pre-season match in France was marked by a violent fight between players from the two teams. The former Manchester United winger, Greenwood, found himself in the heart of the scuffle.

He first hung on with Onana after placing the Belgian on the ground, then smiling at him in the face during their confrontation. According to The Sun, it was during this incident that Greenwood seemed to spit in the direction of Onana.

The sputum of shame

The defender of Villa, Mings, was nearby at the time of the facts, which pushed the 32 -year -old to intervene and seize Greenwood by the jersey. The Jersey of the former Manchester United player was torn during the physical and verbal altercation.

A disciplinary sanction is unlikely, unless the incident is mentioned in the referee's match report. UEFA will not intervene because the leading body of European football has no competence on a friendly match.
