The day after the victory against Gambia, the Lions striker spoke to the press on Tuesday. He talked about his first in AFCON but also the next meeting against Cameroon.
“I am very happy to be playing in my first AFCON. But the most important thing is to put emotions aside and focus on this AFCON.
The team played well and we won. As a striker, I have to be decisive when I enter the field. I made an assist on a superb goal from Lamine Camara (laughs).
We will enjoy the matches in the same way. Whether one team is stronger than the other or not, we respect all our opponents, as we respect ourselves.
We will play our game, as we have done for years and try to win the match. We will approach this match like the one against Gambia.
We will try to play as we know how and try to score goals. This is how we can win this match.
It’s true, we don’t qualify after winning the first match. The group’s speech? Whether you lose or win, the message remains the same. We take this match as a final.
