Man City player ratings as Ederson and Cole Palmer good in UEFA Super Cup vs Sevilla

Ederson: City's best player by a distance. Made important saves at 0-0, 1-0, and 1-1 to keep his side in the game. 8

Walker: A wild lunge in the second half left Guardiola unimpressed and the Sevilla goal came from his side. 5

Akanji: Tried in the John Stones role from centre-back pushing up but it only served to confuse City in the middle. 5

Ake: Soundly beaten for the opening goal and - understandably - took some time to click with Gvardiol. 5

Gvardiol: Not a debut that many pictured after his £77m move, given a tough time on the left. 5

Rodri: Mopped up loose balls well but also struggled more than usual to retain possession. 6

Kovacic: Some bright moments and plenty of attacking energy, although also showed he is still learning the system. 6

Foden: Plenty of industry in the middle but couldn't influence the game in the way he likes to. 6

Palmer: Started brightly, then seemed to lose his confidence but picked it up again after that lovely looping header. 7

Grealish: Gave his full-back plenty of trouble and was scythed down for it, albeit never managed to really test the keeper. 7

Haaland: He couldn't be blamed for being starved of service but there were also some sluggish touches in the box. 5

Alvarez (for Palmer, 85) Scored his penalty with a confident strike. 6

Not used: Ortega, Carson, Dias, Stones, Laporte, Phillips, Perrone, Gomez, Lewis, McAtee, Bobb
