Senegal soccer team coach Bruno Metsu said he was very proud of his team despite their golden goal 1-0 defeat to Turkey in the World Cup quarter-final in Osaka on Saturday.
"The players were heroic, now I think we should congratulate the Senegalese team and I am very proud of them." Metsu said.
"We came up against a very good Turkish team -- luck and maybe talent made its choice tonight." he added.
"I think it (Senegal's progress to the last eight) gives us a lot of hope for the future, for football in Senegal and in Africa in general." he said.
World Cup debutante Senegal has already made a history for advancing to the quarter-finals of the World Cup finals.
