The Portugal international has been riding high all week after scoring a superb opening goal in the Emirates FA Cup third-round win over Wigan Athletic on Monday night. It was his second strike of the campaign so far and his fifth as a Red to date; all of them have been excellent finishes.
MUTV presenter Niall McCaughan sat down with Diogo at Carrington to watch his standout clips from this season and that goal was a natural starting point, but was it rehearsed? “I have been practising a lot in these types of areas, doing some finishing after training and it is always outside of the box,” explains the defender.
