Diogo Dalot feels Manchester United produced a controlled performance to book their place in the FA Cup fourth round with a 2-0 win at Wigan.
Dalot put the visitors in front after 22 minutes, with Bruno Fernandes later converting a second-half penalty.
United dominated against the Sky Bet League One side, making 33 attempts on goal, which Dalot accepted they should have made more from.

“We created a lot of chances and what would have made the difference today was putting the ball in the net a bit more with the occasions which we had,” Dalot said on ITV1.
“They had one or two counter-attacks but overall we controlled the game and had some good moments.”
On his goal, the Portuguese full-back added: “It gave a little more comfort to the team. We needed a goal so we could be a little more calm and not rushing to score another one.
“We created a lot of chances and could have scored even more, overall that is what we missed today.”
