We went through a lot of stress just to get to Yamoussoukro. We did our last training in Prampram and we couldn't train again before this game", Coach Adarkwa told reporters.

"We were tactically disciplined in this encounter. We knew the Burkinabes  were stronger and we had to devise a strategy to overcome them."
