Ratings: Top marks for Man Utd legend but duo fluff their lines in Atalanta draw

We rate the players as Cristiano Ronaldo scored a brilliant brace, with Manchester United twice fighting back from a goal down to draw 2-2 at Atalanta in Champions League Group F.

Atalanta took the lead in the 12th minute when the lively Duvan Zapata was played in behind, with the striker keeping his cool and crossing for Josip Ilicic to hit a low, first-time strike that squirmed underneath David De Gea.

But United levelled in first-half stoppage time as an outstanding team move ended with Mason Greenwood superbly playing in Bruno Fernandes, whose brilliant backheel teed-up Ronaldo to fire home.

Zapata restored Atalanta’s lead in the 56th minute when he got in behind the United defence again and finished superbly. His strike was originally ruled out for offside but overturned by VAR.

Just when it looked like United were beaten, that man Ronaldo popped up again to volley home brilliantly from 20 yards.
