Manchester United player ratings vs Everton: Cristiano Ronaldo and Lisandro Martinez good

David de Gea

Had no chance with Alex Iwobi's sweet strike. Came out of his area to clear and handled the ball carefully. Important save late on from James Garner. 7

Diogo Dalot

His sloppiness inadvertently led to the attack United equalised from. Coped well with Demarai Gray. 7

Victor Lindelof

Not stringently tested by Neal Maupay and had one of his easier encounters at Everton. Steadier next to Lisandro Martinez than in midweek. 7

Lisandro Martinez

Dealt with Maupay robustly and had enough time on the ball to play it adventurously. Didn't waver when Dominic Calvert-Lewin came on. 8

Luke Shaw

Attacked regularly but his end product in the final third was blunt too often. Improved as the game developed. 6

Casemiro

Pick-pocketed for the goal and missed a sitter with a header but his piercing pass assisted Cristiano Ronaldo and he was better in the second-half. 7

Christian Eriksen

An improvement on recent performances, although Everton were curiously standoffish against the Dane, who was the glue in several United attacks. 7

Antony

His best performance in a United shirt. Took his goal superbly and was more direct with his play. Quieter in the second-half. 7

Bruno Fernandes

Quietly effective behind the striker and he seized on Idrissa Gueye's error to turn defence into attack for the equaliser. 6

Marcus Rashford

Bright and should have claimed an assist for Casemiro. Had the measure of Seamus Coleman and had a goal disallowed. 7

Anthony Martial

Assisted Antony to make it 1-1 but his fitness was an issue before kick-off and he did not last half-an-hour. 6

Subs

Cristiano Ronaldo

Scored his 700th club goal to put United 1-0 up. Flicked on for Rashford to score but it was quizzically disallowed. His link up play was superb at times. 8

Scott McTominay

Booked and suspended for Newcastle as he has five yellow cards. 5

Raphael Varane

Huge header. 6

Manager

Picked the right team, given Raphael Varane was not fit enough to start and it showed in United's play before and after Martial had to go off. 7
