SUB: Ruben Dias (Ake, 21’) - 5, Was unable to stop Wilson putting Newcastle ahead then couldn’t keep his header down at the end of the first half. Unlucky to see his header go straight at Pope.

NEWCASTLE RATINGS: Nick Pope - 8, It’s not often you’ll see a goalkeeper get this score after conceding three, but Pope made a plethora of impressive saves and interventions, including tipping Erling Haaland’s effort on to the post and stealing the ball from Ilkay Gundogan’s toes.
AFP
Kieran Trippier - 6, Left Ilkay Gundogan alone in the box for the opener but went on to put in a strong defensive performance after that and scored a stunning free kick for Newcastle’s third. Was shown a red card for a cynical tackle on Kevin De Bruyne as he attempted to run through but it was downgraded to a yellow.

Fabian Schar - 5, Could have done more to deny Gundogan for the opener and was booked for a late challenge on Phil Foden after being beaten to the ball. However, he battled well. Getty
Sven Botman - 5, Some of his passing was off in the first half, but the Dutchman made a good header to find Callum Wilson in the opposition box, then made a good recovery after failing to deal with Phil Foden’s cross. Was saved by Pope after Haaland got behind him and struck over the crossbar. Action Images
Dan Burn - 5, Put in a good defensive display for large periods but completely lost Bernardo Silva for Newcastle’s equaliser. Provided Botman with a good knockdown late on. Got away with an under-hit back pass in the final stages then went off after Botman kicked the ball into his face. Getty
Joe Willock - 6, Gave the ball away cheaply leading to a good chance for City and he then made a good burst forward but waited slightly too long to play Wilson in. Put a good shift in. AFP
Bruno Guimaraes - 7, Was booked inside eight minutes for a cynical foul on De Bruyne but did well to ensure he could make an impact without risking a second. Was unlucky not to get more after closing Rodri down.
Getty
Joelinton - 8, Got through so much impressive work in the middle both in attack and defence, encapsulated when he forced Kyle Walker into a mistake by pressing him at the end of the first half. Was booked for a late challenge on Haaland.
Getty
Miguel Almiron - 7, Hit a horrible shot over the crossbar after being teed up by Allan Saint-Maximin, but got his goal by touching the ball into the net with his thigh. Made a great run to cause panic for Ederson. Getty
Callum Wilson - 7, Scuffed a shot straight into Ederson’s arms but then took a great touch and provided a composed finish to put Newcastle ahead.
Getty
Allan Saint-Maximin - 9, Troubled City’s defence all game and it was his running and quality final pass that created the openings for Newcastle’s first two goals. Then won the free kick for their third.
AP
SUBS: Chris Wood (Wilson, 70’) - 6, Had some good touches but no opportunities to get on the scoresheet. Getty
Sean Longstaff (Willock, 70’) - 6, Got forward well to make a cross but it was blocked and worked hard for the team.

Emil Krafth (Saint-Maximin, 94’) – N/R, Was beaten by Phil Foden but the cross came to nothing.

MANCHESTER CITY RATINGS: Ederson - 5, In addition to conceding three times, he was beaten to the ball by Almiron after coming out of his goal wildly, having to be bailed out by Joao Cancelo.
EPA
Kyle Walker - 3, Had a torrid time attempting to deal with Saint-Maximin and needed to do better in the build-up to both of the first two goals. Overhit his cross in the final seconds when City were attempting to work an opening for the winner.
Getty
John Stones - 3, His poor pass started the move that then saw him get beaten by Saint-Maximin for the first, and the Frenchman got past him too easily for the second. Was booked for sliding in to stop Saint-Maximin on the edge of his own box for the free kick that Trippier scored for Newcastle’s third. His quick thinking from the corner started the move that resulted in City’s second.
AP
Nathan Ake - 6, Was dominant on the ground and in the air before being forced off prematurely due to injury.
Getty
Joao Cancelo - 5, Was booked for a mistimed tackle on Almiron and he then did nothing to stop the Paraguayan scoring the equaliser. He slightly redeemed himself by making a great run and block to deny the same man.
Reuters
Kevin De Bruyne - 8, Had a good free kick attempt stopped by Pope. The Belgian’s cross created the chance for Haaland’s goal and he played an absolutely exquisite pass to find Bernardo Silva for the equaliser.
Getty
Rodri - 7, Hit two shots from range that did very little to trouble Pope and was unable to stop Newcastle breaking forward at times. Made a good header to deal with Trippier’s free kick delivery and did well to touch the ball into Haaland’s pass at the other end for City’s second. AFP
Ilkay Gundogan - 7, Finished well for the opener after being afforded plenty of time in the Newcastle box and made some other good runs into dangerous areas. EPA
Phil Foden - 6, Caused problems in the first half but was selfish and had a shot saved from a tight angle when Haaland was in space in Newcastle’s box. Was involved in lovely link-up play at times.
EPA
Erling Haaland - 7, His brilliant running despite being pulled back by Willock created a chance for De Bruyne but the Norwegian then snatched at an opportunity after good work from Gundogan. Was unlucky to see his shot tipped on to the post after coming up with a brilliant touch, but there was no stopping hi clinical finish that gave City hope. Reuters
Bernardo Silva - 8, Showed brilliant composure and precision to pick out Gundogan for the opener. His under-hit pass almost got City in trouble but he made a great run and provided a tidy finish to equalise.
