This is the feeling inside us right now. We have dreamed about it for so long. We worked hard as a team for so long and now it feels quite relieving to see it with us. You feel relieved only when you work hard for something and finally, you get it. It feels good.
We had a good time.

This moment was very special for all of us and I want to live it. I want to live every moment, every second, every minute that is passing by. I want to make the most of it. I don't think I can put it into words because nothing was scripted. Whatever it was you know, whatever is visible is the emotions inside.'
