Kommentarer från Zambia faithful
Naturligtvis firas det i Zambia. Lusaka var upplyst hela natten och alla djuren dansade någon form av trevlig dans. Det strömmade in gratulationer från omvärlden och från det segerika laget, så kunde man få ut ett par brottsstycken också.
Den tidigare coachen Dario Bonetti, som avgick för något år sedan sammanfattade med "Today is great for all the Zambian people and for me…I’m very happy for this history performance ….Zambia Oleeeeee’
Å Christopher Katongo fortsatte "This is the greatest moment ever a player can have to play in the final. We go to the final without any pressure. We have to take this cup, this is an opportunity. It doesn’t come every day."'
Tränaren Rénard sade "It’s amazing. They did something fantastic (in reaching the semifinals), but now they did something amazing.”“We were lucky.. “Our goalkeeper saved us after a few minutes.”
“I called Emmanuel Mayuka to my room this morning and told him that he had played four very good games, but I just wanted him to rest a bit to be ready for the last 30 minutes.When you are coach sometimes you are right sometimes you are wrong. This time I was right."... och han avslutar om straffen"It was the key to the game,If we concede a goal at this moment it would have been very difficult for us to come back.”.”When we went to the dressing room during halftime, if the score was 2-0 to Ghana we couldn’t complain.I said (to the players) if you don’t want to go home and regret (this) all your life, then you have to try something."
