JAMIE CUMMING

Made one brilliant fingertip save to push a powerful Luca Koleosho strike away for a corner – 7.5

PETER KIOSO

The tricky Jeremy Sarmiento got in a couple of times, but otherwise it was a very disciplined display – 7.5

ELLIOTT MOORE

Marshalled the defensive unit really well and led by example when it came to defending his goal – 7.5

BEN NELSON

In from the start for his debut, and grew into the game after cautious opening stages – 7.5

Admirable performance after shuffling across to left back. So consistent with his performances at the back. MAN OF THE MATCH – 7.5

RUBEN RODRIGUES

Worked hard throughout and helped United keep their shape with his disciplined performance – 7

WILL VAULKS

Back in the holding role and stuck to his task well. His leadership in a game like this cannot be underestimated – 7

IDRIS EL MIZOUNI

Becoming a key cog and irreplaceable in midfield, especially with Cameron Brannagan sidelined – 7

TYLER GOODRHAM

Moved inside to midfield with just under 20 minutes to go and almost sniffed out an opener when he seized possession in a dangerous area. BOOKED – 7

MARK HARRIS

Offered good hold-up play when United got up the pitch and drew fouls from the Clarets backline – 7

SIRIKI DEMBELE

The most likely player to create a little bit of magic out of nothing. Fast becoming a fan favourite – 7

SUBSTITUTES

Kyle Edwards (for Rodrigues, 73)

Great to see him back on home turf again after a gruelling time with injuries – 6.5

Owen Dale (for Dembele, 73)

Offered a new threat and fresh energy on the right wing when he came on – 7

Dane Scarlett (for Harris, 83)

Unused: Ingram, Long, Leigh, McEachran, Sibley, Ebiowei.

Substitutes who come on after the 75th minute do not get a rating.
