**Dean Henderson:** No chance for [Manchester City](/sport/football/teams/manchester-city)'s goals but demonstrated his quality with a fine save early on from Anderson, then others from Semenyo and Cherki. **7**
**Jaydee Convot:** Did nothing wrong but ultimately Palace had no answer to Cherki. **6**
**Chris Richards:** Good battle with Haaland, but only one player was winning that one. Should have scored with a first-half header. **6**
**Takehiro Tomiyasu:** Solid as usual and will bring experience to the Palace ranks. **6**
**Anan Khalaili:** No lack of effort or energy but short of end product. **6**
**Daichi Kamada:** Busy in midfield as always but struggled to exert influence. **5**
**Adam Wharton:** Class act. Composure, vision and a superb range of passing. At the heart of Palace's good things, although like others in the Palace ranks was eventually over-run. **7**
**Tyrick Mitchell:** Tenacious and quick but missed a big chance to equalise with a header in the first half. **6**
**Eddie Nketiah:** Lively early on, forcing a save from Donnarumma, but faded and wasted a crucial opportunity early in the second half. **5**
**Yeremy Pino:** Can be a mixed bag but offers real threat, as he showed with his splendid free-kick that went down as a Donnarumma own goal. **6**
**Jorgen Strand Larsen:** Worked hard but lost the physical battle with Dias. Had one first-half chance but failed to convert. Disappointing. **5**
**Subs:**
**Guessand (on 63, Strand Larsen), Gozo (on 68, Pino), McNeil (on 68, Nketiah), Disasi (on Tomiyasu 74) Mingueza (on 74, Khalaili)**
**Subs not used:** Benitez, Munoz, Lerma, Hughes
