Ekitike: Scoring my first goal at Parc des Princes holds great significance

France defeated Ukraine 4-0, and after the game, Ekitiké talked about his views on the match during an interview.

Ekitiké said, "We don't have much time to celebrate. It's personal satisfaction, and there's another game (on Sunday in Azerbaijan). I hope to continue scoring goals and performing well. I'm happy today, and that's good."

"Playing here (Parc des Princes) is very special. It's a stadium I'm very familiar with, and scoring my first goal for the French team here holds a certain symbolic meaning. The coach is happy for me. He gave me this playing time, and I hope I can repay his trust. I feel he's very pleased." 

"In my position, everything I do will be very important, not only in the French national team - although that is the most important - but also in the club. I will strive to showcase my abilities in every minute I have, whether it's with the national team or the club." 

"I feel proud, especially for participating in this qualifying tournament. During the last World Cup, I watched it on TV. This is a great sense of pride, and I hope to continue like this."
