Exciting on the left flank, Livramento tormented Rashford throughout, leading to the England forward’s early departure in the second half. Equally impressive in defence. PA
Calm and composed, Miley continued to look at home in midfield alongside Bruno and Joelinton and was happy to press outside of possession. He’ll give Howe plenty to ponder when Sean Longstaff returns.Show more

Contributed defensively and kept busy in the middle of the park, but lacked any sting to a second-half shot. Booked. AFP
Displayed bursts of energy when charging forward to assist attacks. Tested Onana with a low effort on goal, which lacked power, before a curling effort that went wide of the far post. AFP
Missed a golden opportunity to open the scoring when his shot was deflected narrowly wide of the post. Happy to drop deeper to support play. Getty Images

MANCHESTER UNITED RATINGS: Chants of "dodgy keeper" greeted him, yet he wasn’t as he saved from Almiron on 16. Beaten by Trippier’s free-kick but saved by the crossbar. Not at fault for the goal. No hShow more
Tough against the effective Gordon, but he was mostly up for it – though he was caught off guard as Gordon crept behind him to score the only goal at the back post. AFP
Busy first half, when he did well to block a Guimaraes shot and deflect another away for a corner. Another block on 44. Booked in frustration. Offside when Antony put the ball in the net. Reuters
Solid defending alongside Maguire as he stood his ground and was twice perfectly positioned to stop Newcastle going ahead. Reuters
Played at left back. Early mix up with Onana. A right-footer who is nowhere near as effective as Shaw at left-back. AFP
Excellent ball for Rashford in a United attack on 31 – one of the few bright moments from his side in the whole game. But played in a team that were miles off their opponents. EPA
Only 30 touches, a very low figure for a central midfielder showing how Newcastle dominated. Getty Images
Tenth-minute shot on goal and an early threat on the left. Then faded. PA
Smart early pass to Garnacho. Hammered in tackles which went unpunished. One of the few who can be satisfied with their performance. Getty Images
Awful on the right, losing the ball, throwing his arms around and not tracking back. First to come off with Martial. Body language does not emit contentment. EPA
Preferred to Hojlund, but was poor. Didn’t track back, which saw his manager shouting at him. Subbed with Rashford. EPA
SUBS: (Martial 61') Put himself about but almost no service. EPA
(Rashford 61') Put the ball in the net on 88, but Maguire was offside. Booked. EPA
(Mainoo 79') Steady as United pushed late on, but woeful ball back to take the impetus out of a 94th-minute attack. Getty Images
