“When you think about the games, for us as winners, the key is to try to improve every time.

“We’re not perfect and of course, we make mistakes but I think the biggest thing is that you want to improve every time.

“I’m very happy that the coach and crew gave me the confidence again to play and I am trying to pay them back for that.

“But more importantly, it is about the team and I think the confidence of the team is growing,” Troost-Ekong said.
