Evra (7.5): Good defending and attacking plays, forced James to tip the goal-bound shot onto the post.

Scholes (4.5): Too slow for a crowded and hard Portsmouth midfield.

Tevez (6.5): Had a good chance cleared off the line.
Rooney (5.5): Lost his touch and a bit too rash.

Kuszczak (5) (Van der Sar 45) Not to blame for the penalty, and did not deserved the red card.
