Hero of the Côte d’Ivoire victory in the CAN final, Séastien Haller fell in love with the meeting.
Sébastien Haller won the greatest victory of his career on Sunday. At least on land. Because a year ago, the Borussia Dortmund striker had led a completely different match, against cancer and a testicular tumor which had been diagnosed to him in July 2022.
After defeating the disease, the former Auxerrois found the grounds and was the hero of the coronation of Côte d’Ivoire on Sunday, in the final of the African Cup of Nations. It is indeed the native of Ris-Orangis who scored the goal of victory against Nigeria in the last minutes of the meeting, allowing the Elephants to win the third CAN of their history and to capsize an entire country.
“It feels good to be a little rewarded, to continue to believe it and to see that it is used for something, Could savor Sébastien Haller at the end of the meeting before melting in tears at the microphone of Boli Boli on BeIN Sports. It’s exceptional. We dreamed of this moment so many times in our life, we hoped to get there. The match was not a long, quiet river. The jubilation scenes, that’s what the country deserves and I hope that it will do good to many people. »»
