Man Utd player ratings: Bruno losing form at worst time ahead of Euro semi as Hojlund looks lost but Garnacho a threat

MANCHESTER UNITED managed to secure a 1-1 draw against ten-man Bournemouth in the sixth minute of injury time. Rasmus Hojlund‘s last-gasp equaliser saw United climb up to 14th in the Prem, after Evanilson was sent off for serious foul play with 20 minutes to go.

Andre Onana – 5 It’s not necessarily Onana’s fault, but Amorim shouldn’t rely on this ‘distribution’ narrative surrounding the Cameroon international. United conceded the opener from being lackadaisical while playing out of the back against a cherry-picked high press. And Onana’s weight of pass is often a long way off. It lacked power into Leny Yoro, who sent it into Row Z for safety early on. There’s a clear lack of relationship between the goalkeeper and his back line. He reacted SO late when Dango Outtara’s blistering free-kick smacked off the post before the hour mark.

But Semenyo came out on top, lashing in a stunning opener for his ninth goal of the season. Given the final quarter of the game off to prepare for Athletic Club semi-final on Thursday. Luke Shaw – 6 Shaw finally started his first Man Utd game in 434 days, when he came off against Luton Town, who are now fighting to stay in the Championship! He’s not up to scratch fitness wise and he clearly hasn’t played this Bournemouth side, who are one of the best pressing teams in the Premier League. Shaw – who started on the left hand side of the back three – sent an ill-advised pass to Dorgu, which invited pressure in the build up to Semenyo’s goal. Yet United desperately need the England star back up to the mark. And he got better as the game went on. His distribution and crosses into the box offered what others in his position cannot. Booked for stopping a counter-attack. What a hit from Antoine Semenyo! pic.twitter.com/mVzoix8Cgs— Sky Sports Premier League (@SkySportsPL) April 27, 2025 Leny Yoro – 6 Some cheeky old fashioned defending at times, grabbing several Bournemouth shirts in the first 15 minutes. Stayed back for Bournemouth’s lightning breaks and cleaned up. But was beaten by Adam Scott too many times down the line. But the teenager has stepped up his attacking game on corners, with a couple headers saved by Kepa. Encouraging prospect. Blocked off Evanlison for a few. But was left frustrated with the ref who took an age to give it as a foul. Patrick Dorgu – 3 Spent too long dallying on the ball before being robbed by Adam Smith, whose cross into Evanilson was met with the daintiest of backheel flicks back to Semenyo. More lively than Mazraoui down the wing and almost caught Kepa out with several threatening crosses – but his team-mate is stronger defensively. Was extremely unluckly to be booked after winning the ball from Smith, which won Bournemouth a dangerous free-kick early in the second half. Casemiro – 5 Casemiro looked back to half his best of late after inspiring United’s comeback against Lyon and playing well in several defeats. But he cheaply and naively the ball away at the edge of the box to Ouattara, whose blocked shot gave the home side a dangerous corner. Semenyo and Scott flicked and tricked through the 32-year-old early on. And Amorim looked incensed whenever he lost the ball to a determined Justin Kluivert. Kobbie Mainoo – 5 The midfielder threatened to mimic his soon-to-be famous goal against Lyon in the dramatic Europa League comeback a few weeks back,
