Man Utd player ratings vs Man City: One 10/10 as Ruben Amorim ousts Pep Guardiola again | Football | SportManchester United completed a breathtaking late comeback to beat Manchester City 2-1 on Sunday. The Etihad Stadium didn't exactly witness a classic between two out-of-sorts teams, but it was Ruben Amorim's visitors that incredibly prevailed in the 195th Manchester derby. Josko Gvardiol's first-half header from Kevin De Bruyne's deflected cross was the latest goal United have shipped from a set piece. But Amad won a late penalty that Bruno Fernandes converted before netting the winner himself in an unbelievable climax. Express Sport rates Ruben Amorim's triumphant side. Man Utd player ratings vs Man CityAndre Onana: 6 No major mistakes on this occasion after a rough week and couldn't have done anything about Gvardiol's opener. Harry Maguire: 7 Has quickly earned Amorim's trust. Didn't put much of a foot wrong in a defensively sound United performance - barring the goal. Matthijs de Ligt: 7 Completed more passes than any other player before making way for Leny Yoro in the 79th minute. Dominant in the air. Lisandro Martinez: 8 So accurate with his long balls. One of them assisted the winner. Recovered well from his nightmare against Nottingham Forest last weekend. Noussair Mazraoui: 8 Not the first time he's been one of United's better players this season. Won the most duels on the pitch (nine) before he was withdrawn late on. Manuel Ugarte: 7 Kept things ticking in midfield. Quietly went about his business. Bruno Fernandes: 7 Created a handful of chances. Should've equalised after Rasmus Hojlund sent him through on goal in the second half but didn't fail to level the score with his 88th-minute penalty. Cool as ice. Diogo Dalot: 5 United's inferior wing-back. Rarely feels like he'll find his target with his crosses. Amad: 10 Is he United's best footballer? I think he might be. An absolute handful all evening. Won the penalty and then snatched three points with an outstanding moment of composure at the death. Mason Mount: 4 Amorim picked him over Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho but he suffered his latest injury as a United player after just 12 minutes. You have to feel for him. Rasmus Hojlund: 6 Should've notched an assist with the Fernandes chance but was largely frustrated. SubstitutesKobbie Mainoo: 7 Wouldn't have expected to be called on so early. Partnered Ugarte well. Antony: 6 Plenty of energy off the bench. Joshua Zirkzee: 6 His hold-up play in the dying moments earned a roar from the away end. Leny Yoro: 6 He would've enjoyed his first taste of the Manchester derby. Victor Lindelof: N/A Introduced at the death. Source link Posted: 2024-12-16 04:37:13 |
