Moussa Sow lauds Senegal after international retirement

Moussa Sow has appreciated the Senegal national team, leaders and the citizens of the country, after calling quit his international career.

Sow made his international bow in August 2009 against Congo and recorded his first goal in a 4-0 victory over Democratic Republic of Congo in September 2010.

And during the 32-year-old's nine-year stint with the Teranga Lions, he went on to make 50 caps with 19 goals to his name. Unfortunately, he didn’t lift a trophy in his time with the national team.
