Manchester United 3-2 Liverpool: Player Ratings

Casemiro 6 – His swansong rolls on! Battled hard in midfield and was a threat on goal, especially coming close in the second half when he got on the end of a cross from Bruno Fernandes, but he couldn’t quite beat the goalkeeper.

Kobbie Mainoo 9 – Masterclass! Excellent finish to restore United’s advantage, to cap off what was a sensational display in the middle of the park. Liverpool were no match for him. The very picture of signature calm and composure.

Bruno Fernandes 7 – Brilliant cross into the path of Benjamin Sesko for United’s second of the game. At the heart of United’s attacking forays, and unlucky not to get an assist.

Bryan Mbeumo 4 – Started brightly but his level dropped as the game proceeded. Multiple heavy touches and poor passes. Can’t get out of his current bad patch of form.

Matheus Cunha 8 – Another massive goal in a big game! Broke the deadlock with a composed finish. A constant threat on the left, and his hold-up play was superb.

Benjamin Sesko 7.5 – Showed great desire and determination for his goal. His 11th of the campaign.

Substitutes

Amad 2 – Gave the ball away almost immediately upon his introduction at the interval, leading to a Liverpool goal. Another who is in torrid form.

Patrick Dorgu 6 – Nice to have him back after a lengthy spell on the sidelines. Positive when he was brought on, breaking into the box and looking to cross the ball.

Joshua Zirkzee 5 – On for the dying embers.

Leny Yoro 5 – Same as Zirkzee
