Leader on the pitch ... Didier Drogba captaining Ivory Coast
"I was sad we lost in the African Cup of Nations final but seeing all the people at the airport was special when you remember the situation here not so long ago.
"We were 23 players out of 20million in the Ivory Coast and we were united for one cause.
"Knowing how difficult it is for a country to start again and to see all the people out there was amazing. It's a sign, it's a big sign.
"It shows us that reconciliation in the country is possible and football can do it."
