Manchester United faced Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium on a challenging and physically taxing evening. With late drаmа, the score was 1-1.
Erik ten Hag started with the same lineup that memorably defeated Liverpool in the FA Cup two weeks before, but this was by no means a replica of that effort. A struggling Brentford team, at the bottom of the standings, pushed back United instead of their energy and оffensive excitement.
This is the players’ rating:
Although his direct kιck attempt was unsuccessful, he produced a superb double stop early in the second half to maintain the score at zero goals and set up Erik ten Hag’s celebration. 8
Diogo Dalot
began the evening erratically and below his pre-international level of play. Has little assistance from starting and replacement wingers in front of him. 5.
Rafael Varane
The man that performed well for United in the first half, and his location prevented a few chances for Brentford. However, he was sidelined during the stop due to yet another ailment. Six
Lindelof, Victor
felt visibly uncomfortable standing next to the commanding Ivan Toney. made a crucial intervention, yet his forced departure due to ιnjury may have been a relief. 5.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka
like a right back at left back, which is what he was. His placement was always wrong and gave Brentford plenty of motivation. survived the whole game, somehow. 2.
Mainoo Kobbie
had a respectable start but deteriorated in the first half as Brentford gained momentum and he could have done with Casemiro at his side. 5.
McTominay, Scott
45 minutes as a passenger in a game he shouldn’t have initiated. Compared to Liverpool, Brentford did not cooperate as much with McTominay. 2.
Alejandro Garnacho
refused to participate in the game and lost his cool when he couldn’t grab the ball off Wan-Bissaka. came off for Antony early in the second half. 4
Fernandes, Bruno
a quiet performance after a week off the field to get more rest. Perhaps wished now that he had gone to Slovenia with Portugal. 4
Marcus Rashford
Had been United’s lone effort on goal in the first half, but his careless touch into the goal epitomized their play, and he was seldom a dаnger. 3.
Hojlund Rasmus
In the first half, anonymous against the back three of Brentford. had a fantastic opportunity to score it 1-0 early in the second half, but Mark Flekken expertly prevented it. 4

Martinez Lisandro
after an eight-week hiatus, returned.
Casemiro
conceded a foul just outside the zone. then gave Mount assistance. 7.
Masonry Mount
Nearly the decisive moment. 8
Supervisor
erroneously selected an unaltered team when he might have fielded a more effective and well-rounded starting eleven. failed to make a tactical substitute when one was required. Eventually, his adjustments had an effect. Six
