Manchester United defender kept a clean sheet on his debut.
Rio Ferdinand praised defender Diego Dalot after the summer signing’s successful debut for the Red Devils.
Dalot was solid as United kept a clean sheet in the Champions League, with Jose Mourinho’s side recording a 4-0 win over Young Boys.
United signed Dalot from FC Porto in May and were disappointed to see him miss pre-season with an injury.
The right-back earned praise from former United star Ferdinand, who used Twitter to praise his performance.
Ferdinand also praised goalscorer Paul Pogba, who netted twice, and Dalot’s fellow full-back Luke Shaw.
Dalot has put himself in contention for a Premier League debut this weekend too, although United could bring Antonio Valencia back in to face Wolves this weekend.
There would be a chance for Dalot a few days later when United take on Derby in the Carabao Cup.
If Dalot is required this weekend, last night’s performance suggested he is ready.
