Manchester United’s attackers finally showcased their skills against Tottenham on Sunday, with the presence of Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Wayne Rooney adding to the occasion. However, the midfielders struggled to assert control over the game, resulting in the visitors staging two comebacks in a thrilling yet ultimately disappointing 2-2 draw.

Rasmus Hojlund made a significant impact with his powerful early strike, but a defensive lapse during a corner allowed Richarlison to equalize. Hojlund and Marcus Rashford combined effectively, resulting in the England striker scoring his first goal at Old Trafford this season. Unfortunately, United’s efforts were quickly undone as the midfield and defense failed to contain Timo Werner, who set up Rodrigo Bentancur for a composed finish.

Now, let’s move on to the player ratings:

Andre Onana (6/10): Displayed good positioning and cannot be faulted for either of the goals. Showed caution when in possession.

Diogo Dalot (7/10): Excellent defensive performance, winning almost every tackle. Had the upper hand against Udogie and Werner.

Raphael Varane (6/10): Should have commanded the area better during Richarlison’s goal.

Jonny Evans (5/10): Made an important early clearance but struggled in aerial duels against Richarlison and was easily beaten by Bentancur for the second goal.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka (6/10): Deployed as a left-back to support Dalot, he adapted well and showcased his usual anticipation and positional awareness.

Christian Eriksen (5/10): Had limited involvement in the game and was substituted in the 58th minute.

Kobbie Mainoo (5/10): Couldn’t replicate his dominant performance against Wigan, misplacing a few passes and failing to make a significant impact. It’s not surprising for a player of his age and experience to have occasional drop-offs.

Bruno Fernandes (6/10): Contributed to both goals with incisive passes in the first half, but his influence waned in the second half.

Alejandro Garnacho (7/10): Initiated the move for the first goal and consistently posed a threat down the right flank. Also demonstrated hard work off the ball.

Rasmus Hojlund (8/10): Delivered his best performance in the Premier League, with his thunderous strike nearly ripping the net apart. Showed excellent chemistry with Rashford for the second goal and provided inviting passes during counterattacks.

Marcus Rashford (7/10): Finished well to score his first goal at Old Trafford in eight months and constantly troubled the Spurs defense. However, his final touch let him down on multiple occasions.
