"It was quite a tough game against a good team. They worked well together. They caused us a few problems, but we managed to win the game and that's a very good thing. We're a united team. We're good together, there's a good chemistry between everyone, which is great.
On my goal, I passed it to Bradley and he played it back to me in the box. I decided to shoot and it went in! It's something to be proud of, a childhood dream. Last year, I scored but the goal was disallowed. This year, it was accepted and I'm really proud. The feeling at the time with the fans screaming and the celebration with the whole group is incredible."

"I think that, as you quite rightly said, matches after the international break are played under different conditions for each player. Some play more or less, some travel a lot, others less, but these are very difficult matches. Today, Strasbourg had only lost one match, and they're a team that attacks and presses a lot, that doesn't leave you any time or space. We knew it was going to be difficult, but it turned out to be.
I think that in the second half we were better able to interpret situations and we created a lot of chances. It's important that we score goals, no matter who scores them, but I think the team continues to create a lot of chances. Today, Senny Mayulu could have scored three goals, he got his goal, he had a chance with the keeper 1-on-1, another shot from close range. I think we created enough chances to win the game."
