I'm very happy with the way my team played tonight. It was a tough game and we played on our nerves. It's difficult to play the home team at this stage of the tournament ... We were playing against a coach, his players and their fans.

We played very well tonight, our team was very well prepared for this game. Every game is big and we still have a lot of work to do against some very good teams in our league. But this was a very important win for us.

What will be will be.

Now we are not considered favorites, but we fear nobody. We have no pressure on us. That is to say if we don't win, we lose everything. Egypt are improving steadily, are confident and will have the little matter of 74,000 people supporting them in an incredible atmosphere.

We came here to play a game worthy of a final. We came to win and we were prepared to win. We lost concentration briefly, but we regained the momentum.

We played at a high level but some individual errors costs us. I'm hoping for a lively Senegal in the quarter-final.
