'THE FIRST THING I DID WAS TO LOOK AT THE GOAL'

During the match, the ball fell in front of me. The first thing I did was to look at the goal. When I took the ball in front of me, I said to myself, 'I can score this.' I believed in myself. It was very nice for me to reflect what I thought onto the field. I am very happy that I contributed to our team earning three points and for my teammates."
