A second-half strike by Dortmund substitute Youssoufa Moukoko proved the difference in an entertaining 3-2 clash at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas

MANCHESTER UNITED RATINGS: Tom Heaton 7 - Decisively claimed a ball on the edge of the area. Wasn’t at fault for either of Malen’s goals. Went off at half time after rowing with Williams about the second United goal. AFP

Diogo Dalot 7 - A screamer into the corner of the net to put his side ahead on 24 minutes. Reuters

Victor Lindelof 6 - Gave the ball away to lead to the second goal a minute after the first. Costly error. Reuters

Harry Maguire 6 - Deflected a header onto his crossbar. Told off by Onana as soon as the goalkeeper came on. AFP

Brandon Williams 5 - Couple of strong runs down the left in the first half, but missed a challenge which led to Dortmund levelling after diving in to a challenge. Then played Dortmund onside so they could score a second a minute later. Stayed on and got forward in a calmer second half. Reuters

Scott McTominay 6 - Captain, even though Maguire started, and he was steady in front of the 50,857 crowd as United lost again in the United States against a side who lost the Bundesliga title on goal difference last season. AFP

Donny van de Beek 7 - Furthest forward of three midfielders and used his body well to get the ball across to Dalot who scored the first. Used his body again to win the ball from a slow Dortmund defence and set up Antony for the second. Reuters

Christian Eriksen 6 - Beautiful ball to Pellistri early on, then drew a fine save after his free-kick beat the wall. Best passer on the pitch. Reuters

Jadon Sancho 7 - Lively against his former team where he excelled. Fine turn in the first half and got 75 minutes. Be interesting to see if he starts against Wolves in the first league game. Reuters

Omari Forson 6 - Involved on the right, not the left as usual. Fast, tricky and shot weekly on target after five minutes. Booked for a tussle and clash of heads, which agitated his manager. Was taken off after 37 minutes. AFP

Borussia Dortmund punished Manchester United's defensive lapses on Sunday as the English Premier League giants wrapped up their North American tour with a 3-2 defeat to the Bundesliga side in Las Vegas.

A second-half strike by Dortmund substitute Youssoufa Moukoko proved the difference in an entertaining clash at the Allegiant Stadium, home of the NFL's Las Vegas Raiders.

United manager Erik ten Hag named a virtual reserve team to start, leaving the likes of Marcus Rashford, Bruno Fernandes and new signing Mason Mount on the bench.

Yet United's makeshift starting XI were more than a match for Dortmund in the first half, dominating for long periods before Diogo Dalot handed the Red Devils the lead on 24 minutes with a long-range strike.

But Dortmund turned the game on its head in the closing minutes of the first half, with two goals in a minute from Netherlands international forward Donyell Malen.

The first came when United's defense failed to close down Karim Adeyemi's burst down the right.

Despite the attention of a cluster of United defenders, Adeyemi was able to square for Malen, who hooked in from close range.

Malen grabbed his second a minute later, this time seizing on a United howler when Victor Lindelof lost possession inside the area trying to pass out from the back.

United were lucky not to go 3-1 down in the opening minutes of the second half, when another defensive slip, this time by Harry Maguire, allowed Sebastien Haller a shot on goal.

United goalkeeper Andre Onana saved and then watched in relief as Adeyemi blasted the follow-up wide with the goal gaping.

United did get back on level terms in the 52nd minute, when Brazilian forward Antony swept home a low shot from inside the area after a botched clearance by Dortmund veteran Mats Hummels.

Ten Hag rang in the changes with 30 minutes remaining, with Rashford instantly providing more of an attacking threat.

But it was Dortmund who scored the decisive goal, with veteran Marco Reus working a clever opening to set up Moukoko for the winner.
