Manchester United player ratings vs FC Twente: Four 7's but 'poor' 5/10 could be dropped - gallery

Manchester United drew 1-1 against FC Twente in their opening match of the Europa League campaign thanks to a goal from Christian Eriksen.

Erik ten Hag made three changes for the match with Marcus Rashford, Manuel Ugarte and Harry Maguire starting in place of Alejandro Garnacho, Kobbie Mainoo and Matthijs de Ligt.

It was an open and engaging start to the match, with both sides enjoying decent opportunities without ever really testing either goalkeeper. Sam Lammers went close for Twente following a mistake by Diogo Dalot, while Mees Hilgers almost put into his own net at the other end of the pitch.

Ten minutes before half-time, United would take the lead through Eriksen, who rifled an effort into the top corner of the net after a loose ball had dropped kindly to him on the edge of the box.

United were the better side after the restart and continued to pose a threat whenever they got on the ball but were made to pay for some poor defensive work when Twente pounced on a mistake by Eriksen to equalise through Sam Lammers.

The goal swung the momentum in favour of the away side, who were comfortably on top for the next few minutes, with United reduced to brief flickers of threatening play on the break.

Ten Hag turned to his bench as he searched for a winner, but not even the attacking threat of Alejandro Garnacho and Rasmus Hojlund was enough to get past a Twente side who defended well in the final stages of the game.

A draw is by no means a poor result given how easy it looks to make it into the knockout stages of the Europa League this season, though United will be disappointed that another decent performance did not bring the result to go with it.
