Booked.Ryan Gravenberch 5Decent in opening quarter when moving the ball forward but could have protected back four better and way off it second half, although unlucky in build-up to penalty.

Booked and subbed.Curtis Jones 6Playing in the double pivot, ability to hold on to ball useful at times but should have cleared down the line ahead of the second.Mohamed Salah 5Denied by good Khusanov touch when found by long Mamarashvili punt first half, drew good save from Trafford after break but missed one opening and then failed from spot. Subbed.Dominik Szoboszlai 5Nowhere near as influential as of late and difficult to remember much impact from the number 10 position.Florian Wirtz 6Looked dangerous first half whenever in possession and found good positions when drifting across the front line, but disappeared after half-time.

Subbed.Hugo Ekitike 6Led the line well with good physical presence but could have done better with first-half shot over. Among those to struggle second half but did win penalty.
