The presence of the public and their joy is what keeps my passion high, especially the children. We have a lot of fans of all ages supporting us, I am very happy to score and make them happy. Goals are good, of course, but the most important thing is to win. For me, the most important thing is Al Nassr's victory. Al Gharafa are a good team and the reason for our victory was the organization of our team. My first and last objective is to win. Goals come after teamwork and my focus is always on scoring and winning. If the team wins, I'm happy and I dedicate the victory to the fans, the club and Ronaldo's fans. We created chances in the first half, but we couldn't score. In the second half, the team made some adjustments and the goals came.
