SOUNDBITE (English) Chris Coleman, Wales head coach:
"I can't honestly describe to you because it probably won't sink in for a few days. Waited so long. I don't just mean as a manager or a player but even as a kid. As a Welsh boy waiting for us to qualify and we missed out, and missed out. I was a part of it as a player and we missed out. For us to finally do it, I can't describe. There is a lot of emotion involved (and) I can't describe the feeling."
SOUNDBITE (English) Chris Coleman, Wales head coach:
"The focus all week has been Bosnia. And to be fair to our players they have been brilliant all campaign. Once we’ve had two games, we've only looked at the first one and concentrated on that. So I no idea what the result was. I don't want to know. Let's just take care of our own business and of course coming off when you get the news it's sheer elation."
SOUNDBITE (English) Chris Coleman, Wales head coach:
"I'm going to call my mother now. I promised her I would. She'll be watching at home, very excited. So I'm going to enjoy tonight. It won't sink in for a few days I don't think. Looking forward to getting back to Cardiff. I hope everybody at home, I imagine will be laughing and smiling. They deserve a smile on their face because they've waited a long, long time. Now it's here, now it's coming so let's enjoy it."
SOUNDBITE (English) Chris Coleman, Wales head coach:
"This is by far the biggest in my career the biggest achievement I've ever had. It doesn't matter where I go after Wales. I'm not sure, no matter what I do, how successful I am, I'm not sure anything will top this feeling and this achievement. Hugely proud to be manager of Wales in such a fruitful time. Obviously we've qualified and I'm now going to enjoy that."
