Was near susceptible by a shaky back-line. But his other fig Dean Henderson, who departed Old Trafford for Selhurst Park successful 2022, showed him up.

Leny Yoro - 5

Came successful for De Ligt, who was benched. Was inches distant from scoring his archetypal United extremity aboriginal on. His positioning was a occupation astatine times.

Harry Maguire - 4

Lost his conflict with striker Jean-Philippe Mateta, who held the shot up good and got successful down each clip and was near stranded for his goal.

Lisandro Martinez - 6

Was stretchered disconnected aft jarring his genu successful the 79th minute.

Seems to beryllium enjoying his caller relation successful Amorim's 3-4-3, with sharp, crisp passing into the guardant lines.

Missing successful the mediate erstwhile Mateta's stunning 80-yard run. Missed fractional a accidental successful the second-half.

Bruno Fernandes - 6

Restricted. Couldn't get guardant overmuch and was unlucky not to people from his accustomed 20-yard territory aft being denied by Henderson.

Booked.

Amad Diallo - 7

Great idiosyncratic runs, connected and disconnected the ball. Dropped to wing-back aft Mainoo came disconnected and was progressive successful thing bully creatively.

Alejandro Garnacho - 6

Predictable build-up. But worked hard tracking backmost arsenic 1 of the 2 10s.

Kobbie Mainoo - 4

Huge experimentation by Amorim to person Mainoo pb the line, albeit falsely. It didn't wage off, but it wasn't each his fault.

It looked promising aboriginal connected erstwhile the England prima acceptable up Garnacho and deed station wrong six minutes.
