Manchester City’s FA Cup final hopes were dashed by a 2-1 defeat to Manchester United, and their players were far from their usual best. Here’s a look at how they fared according to GOAL.

Goalkeeper & Defence 

Stefan Ortega (1/10): Made a critical error that gifted United the first goal.

Kyle Walker (4/10): Started well but failed to track Rashford on United’s second goal.

John Stones (5/10): Didn’t mark his man for United’s second but had some good passing moments.

Nathan Ake (5/10): Struggled against United’s attack and was subbed off at halftime.

Josko Gvardiol (3/10): Made a terrible mistake leading to United’s first goal.

Midfield 

Rodri (4/10): Didn’t effectively counter United’s press and lost control in midfield.

Mateo Kovacic (5/10): Made a good defensive play but struggled overall and was subbed off at halftime.

Kevin De Bruyne (2/10): A frustrating performance with little impact on the game. Subbed before the hour mark.

Attack 

Bernardo Silva (3/10): Had minimal impact and couldn’t overcome United’s defensive strategy.

Erling Haaland (4/10): Had penalty shouts denied but was largely ineffective. Had a shot rattle the crossbar in the second half.

Phil Foden (6/10): Showed good skills but couldn’t create enough chances for City.

Substitutes & Manager 

Jeremy Doku (6/10): Scored City’s only goal but had limited impact otherwise.

Manuel Akanji (5/10): Decent defensively after coming on at halftime.

Julian Alvarez (4/10): Missed a clear scoring opportunity and offered little else.

Pep Guardiola (2/10): City’s tactics failed to deal with United’s approach. The decision to substitute De Bruyne is questionable.
