The Argentine’s evening was a miserable experience from start to finish. Originally deployed on the right before moving to the left wing, Garnacho was largely ineffective. His defensive work-rate was particularly scrutinised when he meekly contested Bruno Fernandes, allowing the United captain to break free and provide the assist for Matheus Cunha’s winning goal.
His struggles were not limited to a single moment of defensive lapse. Diogo Dalot frequently got the better of the 21-year-old, leading to visible frustration on the pitch. Even Chelsea talisman Cole Palmer was seen giving Garnacho a telling-off as the winger repeatedly lost possession, eventually finishing the game having turned the ball over 15 times.
