Gianluigi Donnarumma Nighmarish howler allowed Havert’s equaliser. Redemption – a little – came in the second period with point-blank save from the same player. 4
Matheus Nunes Had a quiet afternoon due to Eberechi Eze’s impotency, underlined by the Englishman’s removal. 6
Abdukodir Khusanov Havertz hoped to bully him and the young centre-back rode his luck when shoulder to shoulder with the German close to City’s area. 6
Marc Guéhi Calm when required, header from Khusanov cross went into Raya’s hands. Looked for a defence-splitting pass. 7
Nico O’Reilly Excellent. Foraging runs from left-back went wide or inside, his technical ability was a plus and cleared off line too. 7

Rodri Odd mis-hit pass but often doused danger and lifted a ball on to Semenyo’s toes. Crucial run helped create Haaland’s winner. 7
Bernardo Silva Buzzed about, committed a sly foul or three, nearly ran in to score and shepherded Havertz as last man. 7
Antoine Semenyo Slipped when galloping on to Haaland’s pass and was clumsy too along the right. Touch, when in, let him down. 5
Rayan Cherki Hit a post, ceded ball, then wow: bedazzled defence to score the finest individual goal this season – given the stakes. 8
Jérémy Doku Flitted from left wing to inside, twisted Ødegaard’s blood and generally had Mosquera where he wanted: on toast. 6
Erling Haaland Forced a Raya error, then overhit a through ball to Semenyo, but after grazing a post was lethal – as he stayed humble, and scored. 8
Subs: Phil (Cherki 85) ; (Doku 88) ; González (Rodri 88) ; (Semenyo, 90+6) .
