Manchester United player ratings vs Barcelona as Marcus Rashford and Casemiro good

David de Gea

Made a couple of stops from Robert Lewandowski and Jordi Alba. Could do little about Barcelona's indirect and direct goals from crosses. 6

Aaron Wan-Bissaka

Created one of United's best openings but loose at times in defence. A constant presence in attack on another encouraging evening. 7

Raphael Varane

Recovered to deny Lewandowski in the first-half but should have dealt with Raphinha's cross that went all the way in. 6

Luke Shaw

His inexperience at centre half showed a couple of times when he was caught out by Lewandowski and Raphinha. 6

Tyrell Malacia

Could have made more of the space United had on the flanks and advanced into the area to get a good chance but did not take it. 6

Casemiro

His game management was vital to United's attackers terrorising Barcelona's defenders but he blemished his night by ceding possession for Barcelona to level. 7

Fred

The best thing that happened to Fred was he lost Marcos Alonso for the opening goal. He responded with a perfect assist and his performance level grew. 6

Jadon Sancho

Did not make the most of his opportunities with the ball and made a mess of Wan-Bissaka's pull-back. Wasted a better chance at the start of the second-half. 5

Bruno Fernandes

Started on the right but moved inside to create a great chance for Wout Weghorst. Deftly flicked the ball on that was turned in by Jules Kounde. 6

Wout Weghorst

Started behind Rashford but was the furthest forward for a one-on-one that he botched. Worked hard but playing a role he was not signed for. 5

Marcus Rashford

Lively and drew a save from Marc-Andre Ter Stegen with a curling effort before he scored
