Mason Greenwood ends goalscoring drought in style as ex-Man Utd star fires timely reminder to new England boss Tuchel
MASON GREENWOOD ended his goalscoring drought in a timely reminder to new England boss Thomas Tuchel.
The forward made a fast start to life in Ligue 1 after joining Marseille, scoring five goals in his first three games.
But Greenwood then went on a barren run of four games without a goal.
However it appears the international break did him good as he returned to form with a goal and an assist in Marseille’s 5-0 demolition of Montpellier.
Greenwood showed devastating pace and trickery to beat his man before firing low past the goalkeeper on his weaker foot to score Marseille’s fourth.
The former Manchester United star has proved himself to be a key player already for Roberto De Zerbi‘s side.
And Greenwood wants to know if his form could lead to an England recall following the appointment of Tuchel, SunSport revealed.
If not, Greenwood will accept Steve McClaren’s invitation to switch allegiance and play for Jamaica.
Greenwood’s international future has been in limbo since he spent 18 months out of the game after being charged with attempted rape, assault and coercive behaviour in January 2022. The charges were later dropped.
A source told SunSport: “Mason knows his chances of playing for England again are very slim. But he wants to check with the FA and Tuchel now he has been appointed, to see what they think.

“He is determined to play at the highest level and that means the World Cup.
“So if England don’t want him, he’ll switch to Jamaica and try and get to the 2026 World Cup that way.”

Ronnie O’Sullivan pulls out of third successive tournament as he withdraws from Northern Ireland Open at last minute
RONNIE O’SULLIVAN has pulled out of the Northern Ireland Open.
The seven-time world champion made the move due to medical reasons.
The Belfast event started yesterday.
But O’Sullivan‘s withdrawal marks the third straight tournament he has missed out on.
It comes after he sat out the British Open and the Wuhan Open.
The World Snooker Tour confirmed the news on Sunday.
As a result of the withdrawal, his first-round opponent, Long Zehuang, was handed a bye into the round of 32.
The Rocket had lost three previous Northern Ireland Open finals to Judd Trump between 2018 and 2020.
O’Sullivan had also withdrawn from last year’s event due to medical reasons.
The world No5 has not played competitively since being knocked out of the first round of the English Open on 17 September – which saw him harshly brand himself “useless” and “embarrassing”.
O’Sullivan has hinted at retirement several times this year.
He recently announced a new side hustle by opening a snooker academy in Saudi Arabia.
O’Sullivan also revealed how he would have pursued a career in motorsport if he never pursued a career in snooker.

Inside Ronnie’s colourful career
FROM his lightning breaks to blasts at officials, Ronnie O’Sullivan has fired snooker into the spotlight.

Skate America: Great Britain’s Lewis Gibson and Lilah Fear win gold in Grand Prix event
Great Britain’s Lewis Gibson and Lilah Fear won gold in the ice dance at Skate America in the first ISU Grand Prix of the season.
The pair beat defending ISU world champions Madison Chock and Evan Bates from the United States by a fraction of a point in Allen, Texas, while Spain’s Olivia Smart and Tim Dieck finished third.
In January, Gibson and Fear won silver for a second consecutive year in the ice dance at the European Figure Skating Championships.
“We were so proud to be up there on the podium. It was definitely a heartwarming moment, especially to be surrounded by our amazing team-mates,” said Fear of the other two pairs she trains alongside.
Gibson and Fear led after the rhythm dance and finished second in the free dance for an overall score of 206.38 points, with Chock and Bates second on 205.63.
The six-leg Grand Prix series continues on Friday with Skate Canada in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Gruesome moment ice hockey star snaps bent finger back into place after punching rival numerous times in head
FANS were left squirming after an ice hockey star appeared to snap his bent finger back into place during a game.
The incident occurred during the American Hockey League clash between the Laval Rocket and Syracuse Crunch on Friday.
Rocket left wing Vincent Arseneau was left with a gruesome injury after a brawl with Crunch star Kale Kessy.
Officials had to separate the pair before either of them fell to the ice, with one of Arseneau’s fingers appearing to be bent the other way afterwards.
The 32-year-old could then be seen snapping it back into place as he made his way to the penalty box.
Despite attempting to correct his injury, the Canadian did not return to the action as his side went on to win 5-2.
He also missed the rematch between the two teams on Saturday, which the Rocket also won 1-0.
Fans were left stunned by the incident on social media after Friday’s clash.
Reacting on X, one supporter wrote: “That’s a hockey player right there.”
Another added: “Tell me you’re a hockey player without telling me you’re a hockey player.”

Meanwhile, a third fan also commented: “I did not need this visual.”
The Rocket, an affiliate of the Montreal Canadiens, are in action once again this weekend.
They take on the Utica Comets at home on Friday before facing them away the following day.
It is not yet known whether Arseneau will make his return to the ice in either of those games.

Ulster Rugby: In-form Jacob Stockdale a ‘very different’ player to 2018
With Andy Farrell set to name his Ireland squad for next month’s four Test matches on Wednesday, Stockdale is expected to be included in the panel for games against New Zealand, Argentina, Fiji and Australia.
Whether he can displace Leinster’s James Lowe on the left wing for what would be a first cap since before the last World Cup will be another matter.
Either way, Stockdale feels he has done all he can to put himself in the frame
“Whether I play or not, obviously I want to, don’t get me wrong, but it doesn’t really matter to a certain degree as I’m doing what I can out on the pitch at the moment.
“I feel like I’m doing everything I can to warrant getting an opportunity.
“If it doesn’t come, it doesn’t come but I’m feeling good.”
Indeed, perhaps the only way he could be preparing for Ireland camp in a better frame of mind would be if he was coming in off a career hat-trick.
Between his first and second scores against Ospreys on Friday night, he had dotted down once more only to have the try chalked off by the TMO for a forward pass after both the conversion and restart.
“I was a bit unhappy, to say the least,” he said.
“It seems a bit crazy to me to hit the conversion and hit the restart and then get brought back for the TMO.
“Where does it end? Is it going to be at a point where we’re 15 minutes later and someone says, ‘oh, that try you scored earlier doesn’t count anymore’.
“I don’t know, fair enough if it’s forward, but it needs to be called earlier.”
