Manchester United player ratings vs Copenhagen as Rasmus Hojlund good and Raphael Varane poor

Manchester United's chances of progressing in the Champions League suffered a massive blow after their 4-3 loss to FC Copenhagen.

Erik ten Hag's side had the perfect start when Rasmus Hojlund gave United the lead within four minutes after a lovely pass from Scott McTominay and he doubled their lead with an easy finish from Alejandro Garnacho's ball across the box. But things started to go wrong in the 42nd minute when Marcus Rashford was sent off for catching an opponent. His straight red card was followed by a goal from Mohamed Elyounoussi and then Harry Maguire gave away a penalty after handling in the box.

Diogo Goncalves scored to beat Andre Onana and the game was 2-2 at half-time. United won a penalty of their own in the 68th minute for handball and Bruno Fernandes converted it but their joy was short-lived when Copenhagen got an equaliser in the 83rd minute and 17-year-old Bardghji then got the winner. Our chief United writer Samuel Luckhurst was at the game and here are his player ratings.

Andre Onana

Could not repeat his penalty heroics from a fortnight ago as Copenhagen scored twice in quick succession. Could have done better for the third goal. 5

Aaron Wan-Bissaka

Played a terrific reverse pass for the opening goal and his partnership with Marcus Rashford was promising until the red card. 8

Harry Maguire

Started alongside Jonny Evans but played most of the first half with the rusty Raphael Varane. They both handled in quick succession to give Copenhagen a penalty but Maguire won a penalty. 6

Jonny Evans

Preferred over Raphael Varane but he came off after 15 minutes
