The Portuguese star had a positive performance in Manchester United’s loss.

Entering the epic match with Bayern Munich with the “order to win”, in fact, Man Utd created a relatively bright match. However, their attack had a really poor day.

During the match, Man Utd’s players only had 5 shots towards Manuel Neuer’s goal. Of these, there was only 1 shot on target.

One could argue that Manchester United’s two full-backs emerged as the team’s greatest threats to Bayern on a day when the strikers performed poorly.

Luke Shaw was responsible for Man Utd’s lone shot on goal, but Diogo Dalot’s amazing ability to induce mutations frequently caused havoc for the opposition defense.

The Portuguese star outperformed every other player on both teams in terms of successful dribbles, with 5/5 versus Bayern, according to data from Fotmob.

Besides, he also tried his best to provide the ball for the strikers with 8 passes into the final third of the field and 5 crosses.

On the defensive front, Dalot also left a strong mark with 2 clearances, 2 interceptions, 13 ball recoveries, 5 duels won and achieved an aerial combat success rate of up to 100. %.

With a score of 7.7, he is Man Utd’s highest-rated player by Fotmob and is only inferior to 4 stars on the Bayern side.

After the final whistle, Diogo Dalot has blamed his side’s poor defending in the Champions League for their exit from Europe

The Portugal international said, “We cannot concede so many goals that we conceded in this group stage. It’s just not good enough. We’re obviously sad.”

“But, at the same time, we just have to realise that this is not the standard that we want to set for this club and for us. So we have to get better.”

“We came here today to win the game. We knew that that was the only result that we wanted.”

Dalot further stated, “I think we did enough to win the game. We played well, especially first half. We were in control, defending really well, the box. And then, one slight mistake, a small detail in the second half and we conceded a goal. Then it was getting after the result and, eventually, we couldn’t.”

The 24-year-old explained that in instances against Bayern, he and his teammates showed composure with the ball, remained compact and pressed well but unfortunately, things didn’t go their way.
