"Football is a beautiful game. It is a game of joy."

"Once, in a match in Senegal, the goalkeeper cried so much after I scored that he had to be substituted! He had lost a big bet!"

"If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there."

"I always wanted to be like my father. He was a great football player."

"The most beautiful thing about football is that it unites people."
