The Whites found themselves 2-0 down after just three minutes via a Scott McTominay brace and Bruno Fernandes also hit a double to go with strikes from Daniel James and Victor Lindelof.
Whites captain Liam Cooper and Stuart Dallas netted for the Whites and Graham Smyth, the YEP's chief football writer, hands out the scores.

8. Raphinha
5 - Loose touches made life harder than it already was. To his credit he kept going, unlucky not to score in the second half.

9. Jack Harrison
5 - Should have scored. Kept plugging away but wasn't able to gain much in the way of an advantage over either full-back, having switched sides.

10. Rodrigo
5 - Uncharacteristically poor in possession which played into Manchester United's hands. Didn't show his quality often enough.

11. Patrick Bamford
4 - Missed a chance that he should have scored, one that came early enough to make a difference. Struggled from then on. Not much service but when it did come his way he couldn't do much with it. Photo by Clive Brunskill/Getty Images.
12. Pascal Struijk
5 - Gave away a penalty, was hit and miss in possession.
