Dalot: We played very maturely and Cunha’s goal was the result of his and the team’s hard work
6686 Sports, October 26th: Dalot helped Manchester United defeat Brighton 4-2 at home in this Premier League match. He praised the team's performance after the game and thought it was a very mature performance.
About the team's performance
Dalot: I would say this was a very mature performance, especially in the first half. We completely had the upper hand against Brighton. The team pressed high while paying great attention to controlling the ball, especially when making decisions in the backcourt. I would say the team performed very maturely. The second half was more up-and-down at times and we gave our opponents a little bit of space, but I think overall we deserved to win and it would have been unfair if the game had gone any other way.
About Cunha’s goal
Dalot: I think the goal is the result of his hard work, not just him, but the hard work of the whole team. I think once we find the confidence, you'll see more individual performances like what Cunha and Mbemo did in this game.
I think Sheshko did a good job against the opponent's central defender, Zirkzee controlled the ball for the team after coming on, and Menu also played well. I can name many players. I think the goal is the result of the team's hard work. Our first concern must be the performance of the whole team, and then individual players need to step forward.
Is the team's team spirit and dedication during the preseason now starting to pay off?
Dalot: I hope so. We have gone through a difficult period, especially not getting the results we deserve. I feel that sometimes we are treated unfairly in terms of competition results, but a performance like today gives us confidence. Manchester United should win consecutive games. I am very happy and proud of everyone.
About the fans
Dalot: The shouts of the fans help us. They are very sincere. When they see the players playing hard for the team, they will always cheer for us. No matter what, as long as you go all out, the fans will cheer for the team. Once we compete at our best, it will be difficult for our opponents to beat us.
