Ghanaian Mohammed Kasoula has lauded the mental toughness of his team-mates after his Qatari side Al Sadd qualified to the final of this year's Asian Champions League final.
Al Sadd lost the return leg 1-0 at home but advanced on a 2-1 aggregate score line and will now meet another Korean side Jeonbuk Motors in the final on 5 November.
"We showed good level during the match. We're now very close to the title of AFC Champions League," Kasoula told the club's official website
ââ¬ÅWe're getting closer to achieving a great dream. Coach Fossatââ¬â¢s instructions is also the reason why we qualified."
Kasoula was born in Ghana but has been playing in the Gulf since 2005 and has gone on to represent Qatar.
He made his international debut for Qatar in a friendly against Slovenia last year.
