Granting access to specific user on a 700 file

Hello,

I have a a directory dir1 with permissions 700 (yes wantedly) and is owned by user1:group1

Code:

rwx------ user1 group1 dir1

I need to give permissions to user2 (belongs to group2) on dir1 and its files, so I granted the permissions using setfacl ; instead of adding the user to groups and them doing the chmod 770 permissions.
Because, I dont want members of this group also should access this content.

Code:

setfacl -Rdm u:user2:rwx  dir1

But the user2 is still not able to access the dir1. Is it because, the directory is having 700 ?
Is there a way to accomplish the need?

OS: RHEL 7
