“We have like three players who won the last tournament in Senegal and we are also here, so we’re working as a team now.
“It’s a different team, different coach and everything but then we need to win, we want to come back with the form of the old guys to win the trophy, this is very important for us and we are here to do that and to qualify for the Olympics.”
