Dalot raves about Garnacho bicycle kickRanks it among his favourite goalsSays winger must follow his own pathWHAT HAPPENED?
However, the right-back stressed that Garnacho, who idolises Ronaldo, must follow his own path. Dalot set up Garnacho's outrageous bicycle kick against Everton in November and he ranks it as among the best goals he has seen in a stadium, alongside Cristiano Ronaldo's stunning long range strike for United against Porto, who the defender supports, in the Champions League in 2009.

"I've seen two amazing goals live, one was Cristiano in Dragao against Porto, I was in the stands. And then the other one was this one, watching live it's the two best goals I've seen," Dalot said in an exclusive interview with GOAL following his recent signing with PUMA.
'IT'S UP TO HIM'
"It's up to him to have that hunger to have that personality as well and obviously it will be tough. I don't think there will be a new Cristiano a new Messi any time soon. He wants to create his own path with guidelines and looking up to these amazing football players. There's only going to be one Cristiano, one Messi, one Neymar, this is something unique, but I think he has to create his own path and work a lot because it's difficult."

Garnacho and Dalot have helped United win six of their seven matches in 2024, giving Erik ten Hag's side hope of salvaging a difficult campaign by finishing in the top four and returning to the Champions League. "Hopefully we can finish with one trophy and be in the Champions League that would be also a step forward in my opinion when we didn't start the way we wanted," he added.
