Erik ten Hag's Manchester United was shambolic in their UEFA Europa League 3-3 draw away at FC Porto and needed a late equalizer to avoid defeat. The English side did not inspire confidence and threw away a two-goal lead to continue their winless streak in the competition.

The scoring started in the 7th minute through Marcus Rashford, who then turned provider in the 20th minute to set up Rasmus Hojlund. The hosts responded through Pepe in the 27th minute before Samu Omorodion bagged a brace with strikes in the 34th and 50th minutes to make it 3-2. Harry Maguire bagged the equalizer in the first minute of added time to ensure the points were shared.

Manchester United player ratings

Andre Onana - 5/10

Andre Onana had a poor game for Erik ten Hag's side and had to pick the ball out of his net three times. He made five saves in the game to prevent Manchester United conceding more.

Noussair Mazraoui - 7/10

The former Bayern Munich player was one of the better defenders in the starting lineup of a poor Manchester United game. He completed one tackle and made three recoveries.

Lisandro Martinez - 5/10

The Argentine defender was poor in the game and was on the pitch while his side conceded three goals against the hosts. He lost four duels in the match to underline his poor display.

Matthijs de Ligt - 5/10

The former Bayern Munich defender also had a mediocre game. He has been part of a defense that has conceded six goals in consecutive games and simply has to turn his form around.

Diogo Dalot - 7/10

The former FC Porto defender was the other member of the Manchester United defense, who looked respectable in the game. He completed 92% of his passes and won four tackles in the match.

Casemiro - 6.5/10

The Brazilian had an uninspiring game for Erik ten Hag's side today but created four chances.

Christian Eriksen - 9.5/10

One of the few players to put in a respectable performance for Manchester United on the road today. He created the most chances in the game (6) and bagged two assists.

Bruno Fernandes - 4/10

The Manchester United captain was disappointing for the side today and let his teammates down with his sending-off when they needed his leadership. He lost six duels and misplaced eight passes in a poor game.

Amad Diallo - 7/10

Amad Diallo was solid on the pitch for Manchester United before Erik ten Hag took him off after 69 minutes. He was the most fouled player (three) and completed all 24 passes he attempted with his 33 touches.

Marcus Rashford - 8.5 /10

Marcus Rashford was glorious in his 45 minutes for Manchester United and did his best to help Erik ten Hag's side avoid defeat. The Englishman bagged a goal and an assist in the game.

Rasmus Hojlund - 7.5/10

The Danish striker bagged a goal but could not help the side to its first win in three games. He managed 16 touches in his 68 minutes on the pitch and gave a good account of himself.

Manchester United Substitutes

Alejandro Garnacho - 6.5/10

The winger had a fair game following his introduction but never kicked into gear. He tested the opposition keeper twice but did not do much else.

Antony - 6/10

The Brazilian was poor following his introduction and did not affect the game in any way in his 21 minutes on the pitch.

Joshua Zirkzee - 6/10

The Dutchman came on for another invisible display for the Red Devils. He managed seven touches and never looked like a threat in his 22 minutes on the pitch.

Harry Maguire - 8/10

The Englishman came on late to save his side's blushes in the match and potentially offer the embattled manager a stay of execution. His late equalizer denied the hosts and helped his side remain undefeated in the UEFA Europa League.

Jonny Evans - 6.5/10

The veteran defender came on late but put on a solid display for Erik ten Hag's side in his 11 minutes on the pitch. He completed 10 passes and won one duel with his 11 touches.
