Manchester United defender Diogo Dalot made his long awaited debut for the club in the Champions League against Young Boys on Wednesday night and could hardly have hoped for a better evening, as he impressed in the 3-0 victory.
Injury had initially forced £19m summer signing Dalot to wait for his debut, with manager Jose Mourinho seemingly keen to protect his fellow countryman as it was only after a month of training and two Under-23 games that he felt ready to hand the youngster an opportunity.
The United boss saw fit to leave captain Antonio Valencia out of the travelling squad to Switzerland after concerns over the impact the artificial pitch could have on his ageing knees.
