Here are our United player ratings.
MAN UNITED 4-2-3-1
Sergio Romero – 7: Had to be alert and make a few smart saves. His effort to deny Jurgen Locadia’s shot from the edge of the box was the pick of the bunch.
Antonio Valencia – 7: Did allow Locadia a free header at the back post on one occasion but was solid otherwise.
Eric Bailly – 7: Excellent at the back. Made some telling interventions.
Chris Smalling – 7: Hit the post at the other end and was solid in his own penalty area.
Luke Shaw – 6: Had an average first half and was replaced at the break, presumably due to injury.
Scott McTominay – 7: Didn’t put a foot wrong. Couldn’t offer the drive United needed from midfield but didn’t put a foot wrong either. Another solid display.
Nemanja Matic – 8: Assumed responsibility in midfield and began pushing forward in the first half. Set up the first goal and scored the second with a fine header. Completed seven dribbles!
Juan Mata – 6: Tried to make things happen but had little to work with in terms of movement from his team-mates.
Jesse Lingard – 6: Scurried about without getting on the end of many passes or making any of note himself. A peripheral figure.
Anthony Martial – 6: His dribbling was not on point and he ended up losing the ball time and again.
Romelu Lukaku – 8: Worked hard and did well with what he had to work with. Took his goal well.
