Victor Lindelöf – 6.5 | Did well against Darwin Nunez, but was losing possession a lot and won just one duel in the game. 

Raphaël Varane – 7 | Manchester United’s best defender from those who started the game. Lost just one duel but could not play the full match.

Kobbie Mainoo – 8.5 | The youngster was oozing with confidence and was able to get past the Liverpool players with ease. 

Alejandro Garnacho – 6.5 | Played the full match but was not able to make any significant impact until he assisted the winner deep into extra time.

Rasmus Højlund – 6.5 | Was doing his best to get into the right positions, but just did not get the right ball inside the box. 

Harry Maguire – 8 | Was a threat for Liverpool in attack more than defense as he got into the box a lot and tried to get on the scoresheet.

Christian Eriksen – 7 | Almost pulled off a stunning assist but managed to do his job well and help his side control the midfield in extra time.

Jarell Quansah – 6.5 | Managed to do his best to keep Rasmus Hojlund quiet but could not do much when Marcus Rashford was playing up front. 

Virgil van Dijk – 7 | Solid display from the captain once again, but should have done a lot more for Rashford’s goal.

Andrew Robertson – 7.5 | Pick of the Liverpool defenders today and could have easily got on the scoresheet too in the first half.

Alexis Mac Allister – 8 | Scored the opening goal but was finding it hard to keep control of the match in the midfield.

Dominik Szoboszlai – 6.5 | Kept shooting from outside the box but none of the shots troubled Andre Onana.
