Senegal head coach Aliou Cisse is highly optimistic his side will succeed at the upcoming 2022 FIFA World Cup.
Senegal are one of three African nations who have reached the quarter-finals of the World Cup and will hope to achieve the same feat or possibly surpass it in Qatar.
The reigning Africa Cup of Nations champions have been drawn against hosts Qatar in Group A as well as Netherlands and Ecuador.
"I think that's the strength of this national team there. Beyond the intrinsic qualities, the footballing qualities, there is above all this support in this team, this solidarity, this love," Cisse said as quoted by reuters.com.
"If we won the Cup of Nations, it is because of all these values that surround this team. The pleasure when they are together is fantastic."
The 2022 FIFA World Cup takes place between November 21 and December 18, 2022.
Only three sides from the continent have ever progressed to the quarter-finals; Cameroon in 1990, Senegal in 2002, and Ghana in 2010.
