"I am very proud of how far I have come and I am hoping to inspire more women in football and across other disciplines they find themselves in."

"At the end of the day, it comes down to the application of one’s self in whatever he or she is doing. Again, I am very thrilled at the prospect of making more history as a woman."

"I believe that everything starts at training, as coaches we make sure we apply good tactics, so that when we face-off with tough oppositions we can have players follow the game plan."

"All I can say - is that we have players who are always willing to take instructions - they make our job easy and we are very proud of their achievements this season."

"Before the match, I spoke about the unpredictability of the game of football because there are no pushovers in the sport anymore. It’s incredible to see how much momentum the women’s game is gaining across the continent. Nevertheless, the final allows us to showcase our attacking capabilities once again. We simply cannot wait."

"It was a dream come true. In a way, I have been preparing for that moment because Ive always wanted to be a coach."

"It is such a great opportunity to be given a chance to showcase my talent as a woman."

"I am proof that gender cannot prevent one from becoming what they want to be."
