Player Performance Review: Manchester United vs Arsenal

Phallon Tullis-Joyce (9/10):
Tullis-Joyce was a formidable presence in her penalty area, making a series of impressive saves to keep Arsenal at bay.

Jayde Riviere (3/10):
The right-back received a yellow card early in the second half and subsequently made a reckless challenge, resulting in a second caution and dismissal. This lapse in judgment could have significantly impacted her team’s performance.

Maya Le Tissier (7/10):
As the Manchester United captain, Le Tissier rose to the occasion, leading her defense effectively, particularly when the team was reduced to ten players.

Dominique Janssen (8/10):
The former Arsenal player was the standout performer in the United defense, effectively neutralizing several crosses and limiting Russo’s impact upfront.

Anna Sandberg (6/10):
Sandberg was effective on the left flank, successfully containing Beth Mead throughout the match.

Hinata Miyazawa (7/10):
A dependable presence in the midfield, Miyazawa consistently delivered accurate passes and helped alleviate pressure on her teammates.

Julia Zigiotti Olme (6/10):
Similar to Miyazawa, the Swedish international displayed a tidy performance in a double pivot role, giving Park the freedom to advance.

Jessica Park (6/10):
Park was a lively presence, attempting to push the team forward, but struggled to exhibit her skills due to Arsenal’s dominance in possession.

Fridolina Rolfo (6/10):
Rolfo nearly scored with a powerful header, but was thwarted by an excellent save from Borbe. Her performance in the second half was less impactful.

Elisabeth Terland (5/10):
Terland was somewhat disengaged for much of her time on the pitch before being substituted for Lea Schuller.

Melvine Malard (6/10):
The French forward put in significant effort for the away side but was unable to make a meaningful contribution to the attack.

Lea Schuller (5/10):
The recent signing from Bayern Munich made her club debut but found herself isolated in the attacking role as United aimed to secure a point.

Simi Awujo (N/A):
Awujo entered the match after an hour but was substituted just ten minutes later following Riviere’s dismissal.

Hanna Lundkvist (6/10):
Lundkvist was introduced to strengthen the defense in the final 20 minutes, addressing the gap left by Riviere’s exit.

Lisa Naalsund (N/A):
Naalsund made a late appearance in the match.

Marc Skinner (7/10):
The United manager planned a strategy focused on absorbing pressure and countering against the Gunners. He will likely be pleased with securing a point, especially given the challenges of playing with ten men.
