Foden sees red as Mainoo impresses - Manchester derby ratings

Senne Lammens: Not as busy as he might have expected to be. Absolutely vital save from Fernandez to prevent City second. 7

Diogo Dalot: If only he had been able to control Bruno Fernandes' chipped pass into the penalty area he might have marked his 250th Manchester United appearance with a rare goal. Didn't look down the line to see he was clearly offside as United pressed just before half-time. Screwed shot wide after break. 4

Harry Maguire: Decent performance from veteran central defender and not far away from an equaliser with late header. Needless push on Enzo Fernandez in the box, for which he was booked. 6

Lisandro Martinez: Didn't dive in when Bruno Fernandes played a pass towards his own goal straight to Erling Haaland and won the ball from the Norwegian. Decent effort 7

Patrick Dorgu: Replaced Luke Shaw at left back and did OK but doesn't have the same link with Rashford. Attempted block proved so crucial to City's opener. 6

Kobbie Mainoo: Another assured display in front of England boss Thomas Tuchel. Came close to giving his side the lead just after half-time and was home side's most effective midfielder battle. 8

Youri Tielemans (off 66, Sesko): Best performance of the season so far but yet to make the standout contribution expected. 7

Bryan Mbeumo: Probably United's most effective attacking player. Header just wide before injury-time effort saved. 8

Bruno Fernandes: Fortunate to get away with no sanction at all over the incident that led to Foden's dismissal. Not one of his better efforts 6

Marcus Rashford (off 83, Zirkzee): Curling long-range free-kick against the post with Donnarumma beaten and shot into side-netting but still waiting for first goal since his return. 6

Matheus Cunha: Preferred to Benjamin Sesko in starting line-up and dragged early shot wide. Got involved on plenty of occasions, but again by dropping deep. Off target with a second half opportunity. 7

Subs:

Benjamin Sesko (on 66, Tielemans): Brought on to make an impact and tried his luck from distance soon afterwards. 6

Joshua Zirkzee (on 83, Rashford) 6

Subs not used: Darlow, Mazraoui, Mount, Yoro, Santos, Heaven, Lacey.

Gianluigi Donnarumma: Saw his post hit twice but made a good stop to deny Fernandes from range and a sensational one in injury-time from Mbeumo for the clean sheet. 8

Matheus Nunes: Overcome his nightmare performance here from April 2025. Showed some neat touches and generally shackled Rashford well. 7

Ruben Dias: The Portuguese has stepped up to take on the responsibility of being captain and was solid at the back once again. 7

Marc Guehi: Beginning to form an impressive partnership with his skipper and needed to be sturdy after City were reduced to 10 men. 7

Josko Gvardiol: Looks like left-back is where his position will be in this team. Handled Mbeumo brilliantly throughout and provided the cross for Haaland's goal. 8

Elliot Anderson: Busy and hard working in the centre of the park, as is now expected. Managed more touches of the ball than any City team-mate. 7

Enzo Fernandez: Given licence to roam and has fitted in seamlessly into midfield. The Argentine made an excellent challenge to thwart Tielemans and struck the post in the second half. 8

Antoine Semenyo: Has struggled in recent games and was wasteful once more. Place in the starting XI could come under pressure from Iliman Ndiaye. 5

Phil Foden: Total head loss in the cauldron of the derby. Given a straight red after kicking Fernandes in the stomach on 23 minutes and fortunate not to cost his side. 3

Rayan Cherki: Created very little after being move to the right. Not helped by a fellow attacking player getting himself sent off before being taken off at half-time. 5

Erling Haaland: On the periphery of the game in the first half, the fewest touches of any player. But came alive to open the scoring in with a cool, first-time finish in front of his own fans. 7

Subs:

Iliman Ndiaye (on 45, Cherki): Caused some concern to the United backline with his direct running. 6

Nico O'Reilly (on 81, Fernandez) 6

Subs not used: Rulli, Kovacic, Reis, Bouaddi, Allan, Khusanov, Lewis.
