David de Gea
Kept well from Stuart Armstrong's effort and handled another shot securely in awkward conditions. Oddly, didn't dive for Che Adams' goal. 6
Diogo Dalot
Signalled his intent by developing his rapport with the Stretford End and played purposefully but was out of position when Adams struck and indecisive in the final third. 6
Raphael Varane
Encountered some early issues and he was drawn out of the backline to enable Adams to score in a one-on-one. 6
Harry Maguire
The first-half was mercifully serene for the United captain after criticism in midweek but he regressed in the second-half when Armando Broja skipped past him. 5
Luke Shaw
Blocked a goalbound strike from James Ward-Prowse and then sparked the breakaway. Lagged in the second-half against Kyle Walker-Peters. 6
Scott McTominay
Competitive against Ward-Prowse and Oriol Romeu and collected a booking. Once the Saints midfielders seized control, McTominay became swamped. Substituted. 5
Paul Pogba
His personal pattern continued of a fine first-half performance only to fade in the second. Endeavoured to effect the game. 6
Bruno Fernandes
Had a key role in the goal by releasing Marcus Rashford down the right but became frustrated as United let slip another lead. 6
Marcus Rashford
Began poorly but did well to pick out Jadon Sancho for the breakthrough. That was the standout moment of another difficult afternoon. 4
Jadon Sancho
Another fine individual performance. Decision-making let him down with one opening but he atoned by scoring. Not as involved after the pause. 7
Cristiano Ronaldo
Missed a sitter at 0-0, caught offside too often and looked immobile at times. If Edinson Cavani was up for it, he might have come on for Ronaldo. 3
Subs
Anthony Elanga
Lively. 6
Jesse Lingard
Booked. 5
Manager
Picked the right side and United started well again but slackened off after scoring and their frail mentality was evident again. Went for it with his changes. 6
