Fantastic performance from you, is this the best performance you have ever had in your career?

What did the coach say to you at half-time?
''Not just me, he psyched us up. He said it's one goal at a time and I think we were able to take out the instructions and this is the most important thing, to be disciplined with the instructions the coach gave us. It was the key to our winning also.''
You have continued your professional football education in Belgium, what has that done for you as a footballer?
''It really helped me a lot. I had a difficult time in Wolfsburg and I think Charleroi have really helped me a lot and I am grateful to them also.''
