Often criticised for his defensive work rate, the 26-year-old put in a solid defensive effort, helping Erik ten Hag's charges keep the newly crowned Premier League champions at bay for most of the game.

Despite a late goal from Jeremy Doku that created some tense moments, the Red Devils held on to secure a vital win over their 'noisy neighbours,' avenging last season's defeat in the same competition's final.
