Mason Mount embarrassingly misses open goal and falls over in first Old Trafford game

Mason Mount missed an absolute sitter from just yards out in Manchester United's friendly against RC Lens.

The England international signed for United from Chelsea for a fee of £55 million and made his first appearance at Old Trafford in a red shirt on Saturday.

But Mount had a moment to forget in the first half against the Ligue One side when he spurned a golden opportunity for his first goal.

Watch video below...

 United put together a stunning move, with Bruno Fernandes sending Alejandro Garnacho clear with a wondrous defence-splitting pass.

The Argentine unselfishly laid it on a plate for Mount, who basically had an open goal to aim at from just six yards out.

But Mount fluffed his lines horrendously, kicking the ball against his own foot and letting the opposition off the hook.

United's new No.7 saw the funny side and was pictured laughing despite it being a moment he will not want to watch back anytime soon.

United looked incredibly threatening going forward, particularly down the left flank as the lively Garnacho caused all sorts of problems.
