Default Re: [UEL] Manchester United 2-1 Anderlecht

Manchester United 2-1 Anderlecht AET (agg: 3-2) - PLAYER RATINGS: Luke Shaw shows Jose Mourinho what he's been missing as Marcus Rashford shines in extra-time at Old Trafford

* Marcus Rashford scored the winning goal to put United into the semi-finals
* Sportsmail runs the rule over the individual performances of the players


Manchester United successfully navigated their passage through to the semi-finals of the Europa League on Thursday night.

Marcus Rashford scored the winner in extra-time after Anderlecht had equalised through Sofiane Hanni following Henrikh Mkhitaryan's opener.

Sportsmail's CHRIS WHEELER was present to assess the individual performances of both sets of players.

MANCHESTER UNITED (4-2-3-1)

Sergio Romero 6.5 - The Argentine looked solid again on his ninth appearance in 12 Europa League games this season but had had little chance with Hanni's equaliser after Tielemans hit the bar.

Antonio Valencia: 6 - Didn't get forward nearly as much as he would like because he had enough on his plate with the tricky Acheampong.

Eric Bailly 7 - United's defensive linchpin in the absence of Smalling and Jones, and he stepped up to the plate again here after Rojo joined the list of injured centre-backs. Hardly put a foot wrong.

Marcos Rojo 6 - Hurt his left leg in an early challenge with Chipciu. Tried to continue but was carried off almost immediately in the 17th minute after nearly letting in Acheampong for a goal.

Luke Shaw 7 - This is what United have been missing from the young England left-back. Shaw’s overlapping runs down the left caused Anderlecht all sorts of problems and should have been rewarded with a goal. More solid in defence too.


Luke Shaw showed what Jose Mourinho had been missing on the left side of defence

Michael Carrick 6 - Typically steady performance from the United skipper which allowed Pogba to break forward at every opportunity, but found himself outnumbered by the excellent Tielemans and Dendoncker at times.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan 6.5 - Continued his impressive scoring record in Europe with goal No.5 but went off the boil after that. Should have scored another before half-time but was well wide of the target.


Mkhitaryan provided Manchester United with plenty of attacking threat going forward

Jesse Lingard 5.5 - A little subdued and the first United player to be replaced. Had a great curling effort turned away in the first half and couldn’t quite get on the end of Shaw’s cross in the second with the goal gaping.

Paul Pogba 6 - Played a great throughball to Rashford in the build-up to the opening goal but struggled to impose himself after that and was guilty of a glaring miss from eight yards out late in the second half. Had the ball in the net in extra-time but it was ruled out for a foul by Fellaini.

Marcus Rashford 8 - The youngster came up with another big goal for United after his excellent performance against Chelsea. His powerful running was a strong feature again but his finishing let him down until extra-time when he took over from Ibrahimovic down the middle and fired the winner.


Rashford scored the winner for United in extra-time to send United through to the last four

Zlatan Ibrahimovic 5 - Limped off after jarring his right knee in the last action of normal time. Capped a miserable night for the Swede after last week’s ponderous showing in Brussels. Twice in the second half he only had the keeper to beat and failed.

Subs: Blind 5.5 (for Rojo, 23) Fellaini 6.5 (for Lingard, 60) Martial 6 (for Ibrahimovic, 91)

Not used: de Gea, Herrera, Martial, Rooney, Young
