Jesse Lingard - 4. On for Ronaldo off after 72. Difficult for him to get traction as Young Boys used their extra man so well. Error for the home winner. Nightmare.
Anthony Martial - N/A. on for Fred in the 88th minute of a compelling fixture. To experience the misery of a late defeat. Reuters
MANCHESTER UNITED PLAYER RATINGS: David de Gea - 7. Save from a drilled shot when he needed to get down to his right after 24. The ball fizzed around him on the plastic as YB created more chances. Yellow carded for time wasting after 64. It had been coming. Tipped ball over after 87 from Aebischer, but all his efforts were in vain. Reuters
Aaron Wan-Bissaka - 4. Miscontrolled a 35 minute ball and received a straight red card for what he did next – a tackle on Martins that looked worse than it was. The midfielder went down like he was seriously hurt. He wasn’t. Still, the lack of discipline was telling. Getty

Victor Lindelof - 6. One suspect moment in first half which United had controlled until Wan-Bissaka was sent off. Switched to right back for second. Had the ball in the Swiss box after 78 minutes. Didn’t have quick enough feet to shoot. Reuters
Luke Shaw - 6. Purposeful and confident going forward. Came wide in first half and even wider in second as the defence went to five at the back. Couldn’t get across to prevent equaliser. Getty
Paul Pogba - 6. Ran to get into key positions on the left. Neat, quick footwork as ever. Some of it came off, some didn’t. Reuters
Fred - 7. Needed a good performance here in 2018 and got one. Needed the same this time. Double back heels after 51 minutes were cheeky. Worked hard in the middle, breaking up and blocking. Important player as United almost survived the Swiss siege. AFP
Jadon Sancho - 5. Waited for chances on right but most of United’s early play was down left. Should have picked Pogba out on 28 but wasted opportunity. Unfortunate to be taken off after 38 after the man behind him was sent off. His time will come. AP
Bruno Fernandes - 6. Delightful ball with outside of his foot to Ronaldo for the first. Referee looked concerned that he was injured in second half. He wasn’t. Off as United needed more physical power to prevent a Young Boys’ winner. Getty
Donny van de Beek - 7. Rare start and worked hard to impress, pushing forward and defending diligently. Unfortunate to come off at half time in tactical shuffle. EPA
Cristiano Ronaldo - 7. Trickled the ball under Von Ballmoos on the heavily watered plastic pitch to put United ahead. Almost got a second from a counter on 24. Won ball and ran at goal – then appealed strongly for a penalty on 53, but the referee declined. He was furious. AFP
SUBS: Diogo Dalot - 6. On for Sancho after 38 in a tactical switch after Wan-Bissaka was sent off and straight into a United attack. AFP
Raphael Varane - 7. On for Van de Beek at HT. On into a pressured situation and read game well. Got in a good position by front post to stop a 75th minute effort. Reuters
Nemanja Matic - 6. On for Fernandes after 72 to bring some sense and stability. Didn’t really work out. EPA
