Sekou Tidiane Kaba, Guinea’s head coach: “I am very proud of my team for the efforts although I am unhappy with how the game went and the tournament ended for us.”
Senegal’s Nguenar Ndiaye, Woman of the Match: “I am very happy to win the Woman of the Match. I feel so very emotional. I will also love to dedicate this award to my mother.”
Mame Moussa Cisse, Senegal’s head coach: “I am very happy with the results so far. Our objectives have been achieved. We’ve played three games and won all of them. About us being the favourites, I agree that we are one of the favourites but we will not assume victory before we play our games. We will focus on one game at a time and we hope to win our semi-final game on Friday. We may be the favourites, but we must prove it on the pitch.”
Gambia’s Catherine Jatta, Woman of the Match: “I am very happy to win the Woman of the Match. I must thank my coaches and teammates for making it possible. For our next game, I believe we are going to do everything necessary to win.”
Mariama Sowe, the Gambia head coach: “I will like to congratulate my girls on the victory against Guinea-Bissau. From the start of the tournament, I said we are going to be taking each game as it comes. Now the Guinea Bissau game is over, we are now going to face the host Cape Verde. We know the home team will have massive home support but we will go all out to ensure we secure the three points and make sure we play in the final.”
