Jean-Philippe Krasso (Ivory Coast forward): "I am proud"

Jean-Philippe Krasso, Ivorian attacker, talks about his team 2-1 victory against Czech Republic, his goal and the Ivory Coast qualification for the Maurice Revello Tournament final:

"We're very happy to have won this game! Now we're in final and we're going to do everything to win. I started the game on the bench, I was very motivated when I entered on the field. I tried to bring as much as possible to my team.
Personally, I am proud to represent my country. There are always good games, and bad ones, but I try to always give the best. Today I scored the goal for the qualification, and I am extremely proud of it. I hope I can do it again during the final.
I didn't watch England playing, but I will watch videos. I already know this is a very good team, they won their semi-final 3-0, that’s pretty impressive.
"
