Player Ratings: Everton 2-2 Manchester United (Premier League)

Manchester United managed to salvage a 2-2 draw in their Premier League clash against Everton this afternoon after a dismal first-half display.

Manchester United are a relegation-threatened side right now and there’s no denying it.

Everton were all over Ruben Amorim’s side in the first-half of this game. Beto scored the opener before Abdoulaye Doucouré added a second and the defending from United was Championship standard on both occasions – and that is generous.

Amorim’s side were not much better at the beginning of the second-half, but a moment of magic from a Bruno Fernandes free-kick gave them a goal and woke United up.

Manuel Ugarte scored a lovely half volley to equalise, with impacts from Alejandro Garnacho and Chido Obi from the bench.

However, it seemed like Everton were gifted a last-minute penalty, but VAR ruled the spot-kick out to save United’s blushes.

Ratings can be read below.

United player ratings vs Everton

André Onana – 1/10

Pathetic and fortunate that the penalty was overturned. He pushed the ball right back into danger.

Noussair Mazraoui – 5/10

Very poor first-half, improved in the second until he came off.

Harry Maguire – 4/10

Disastrous first half but better in the second.

Matthijs de Ligt – 3/10

Horrible first half performance, looking like he could not pass the ball. Ended the game better.

Diogo Dalot – 2/10

Similar to his defensive teammates, awful in the first, slightly better in the second.

Casemiro – 2/10

Very poor in the middle.

Manuel Ugarte – 5/10

Performance was extremely questionable but he delivered a big moment.

Patrick Dorgu – 7/10

United’s best player throughout the game.

Joshua Zirkzee – 3/10

Too slow and can’t deal with Everton’s physical level.

Bruno Fernandes – 7/10

Awful in the first half but moved further back and led United’s comeback.

Rasmus Højlund – 1/10

He might suit the Championship. And he may be there next season.

Substitutes

Alejandro Garnacho – 8/10
