What new power has either Sasuke or Naruto demonstrated in the Gaiden/Boruto movie that puts them so far above their manga counterparts that they could solo Madara, whom they previously equaled whilst working together? The most that I know was Sasuke's dimension hopping, which, while useful, is not as much of an in-combat ability as Kaguya's was, especially as it causes him to lose his other powers after its continued use.

Naruto and Sasuke are likely stronger than the end of manga, though that is still assumption as (as far as I know) they have shown nothing to surpass their end-of-manga abilities. The entire Momoshiki fight was ordinary taijutsu ending with a Kurama-Susano'o attack, so their wasn't anything special there, and the Gaiden had literally no proper fighting to compare against.
