Paulo Dybala celebrates after giving Juventus the lead against Manchester United
MANCHESTER UNITED (4-2-3-1)
David de Gea – 7
Blameless for Dybala’s goal, made good saves after that from Cancelo, Ronaldo and Matuidi.
Ashley Young – 6.5
Handled the task of marking Ronaldo by kicking him whenever he was beaten by pace and skill.
Chris Smalling – 6
Couldn’t clear Ronaldo’s cross at the near post which gave Dybala chance to score.
Victor Lindelof – 5.5
Got a rocket from Matic after struggling with Dybala’s movement. Nowhere near striker for goal.

Luke Shaw – 5.5
Caught out by Ronaldo’s pace and movement when he switched to the right flank.
Nemanja Matic – 5.5
Failed to give his central defenders protection though he’d also point the finger at Pogba for that.
Paul Pogba – 5
Three thousand Juventus fans will be shocked how bereft of confidence their former hero looks.

Marcus Rashford – 5.5
His dribbling skills were United’s best outlet but looked a boy in a man’s game at other times.
Juan Mata – 5
Spaniard saw little of ball and unable to repeat influence he had in Saturday’s draw at Chelsea.
Anthony Martial – 5.5
Spent too much time tracking back and deflected Ronaldo’s cross for goal. More positive later on.
Romelu Lukaku – 5
Goals have dried up for big Belgian who hasn’t scored at home this season. Final ball poor as well.
Manager – Jose Mourinho – 5
Setting his stall out no longer seems to work for the Special One because United keep falling behind.

JUVENTUS (4-3-3)
Wojciech Szczesny – 6
Difficult to judge former Arsenal keeper as he hardly had a shot to save – in contrast to de Gea.
Joao Cancelo – 7
Right-back was always a useful attacking outlet and denied by de Gea in first half .
Giorgio Chiellini – 7
34-year-old was recalled for this game and was Juve’s leader at the back. Still a force.

Leonardo Bonucci – 7
Tough guy who lived up to his billing by kicking Lindelof in the head.
Alex Sandro – 6.5
Looked briefly uncomfortable when Rashford ran at him but United couldn’t exploit left-back.
Rodrigo Betancur – 6.5
Uruguayan midfielder impressed at the World Cup and is continuing his fine form.
Miralem Pjanic – 7
Glides over the pitch and a constant menace to United’s midfield with his movement.
Blaise Matuidi – 6
A better finisher might have put away chance when de Gea parried Ronaldo’s free-kick.

Juan Cuadrado – 8
Chelsea flop showed pace and intelligence. His near-post run created space for Dybala’s goal.
Paulo Dybala – 7.5
Marked his 150th Juventus appearance with an excellent finish having missed an earlier header.
Cristiano Ronaldo – 7.5
Made an impact at his old ground. Assisted Dybala’s goal, could have scored twice himself.
Manager – Massimiliano Allegri – 7
Instead of playing for a draw, Allegri set his team up to create danger and they looked slick.
