Karim Guizani was recently named as Player of the Tournament at Mercury\u2019s EURO50. Representing France, Karim\u2019s seven goals played a major role in firing his team to a place in the final.<\/p>\n

Following a fantastic performance throughout, Les Bleus were defeated at the last hurdle, with Ireland (2) lifting the Frank O\u2019Kane Cup after a nail-biting penalty shoot-out in Frankfurt.<\/p>\n

Karim, who works as a CSA Package Manager on a data centre project in Paris, was recently presented with his Player of the Tournament award and recapped his experiences of EURO50.<\/p>\n

You can read Karim\u2019s full insight into EURO50 below.<\/em><\/p>\n

Can you tell us a little about your background?<\/h4>\n

\u201cI am from Saint Etienne, France, and come from a Tunisian background. I studied Civil Engineering which I received a master\u2019s degree from St. Etienne University. After this I moved to the UK where I undertook a further master\u2019s degree, this time in Construction Project Management at Portsmouth. I returned to France after spending five years in the UK, and I have spent the past fifteen months working with Mercury on a large data centre project in Paris.\u201d<\/p>\n

What age did you start playing football?<\/h4>\n

\u201cI started playing football at the age of five and played for AS St. Etienne\u2019s youth academy right up until the age of 18. That was over 15 years ago, but I\u2019ve kept a bit of that touch! I love football in general, I love to watch any games, but AS St. Etienne will always be my favourite as they are my hometown club.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What was the most enjoyable aspect of EURO50?<\/h4>\n

\u201cMy favourite thing about EURO50 was the amazing atmosphere throughout. All of the support, the laughs, and the positive energy around the pitches were great to experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

What did you think of your team\u2019s performance and how did you celebrate after the tournament?<\/h4>\n

\u201cI was really proud and happy with our team performance. We all played very well and helped each other for the benefit of the team. Our group of supporters who travelled from Paris were amazing, and they helped us to play well. EURO50 was very entertaining to play in, and we had a great time in Frankfurt after the events.“<\/p>\n

„Being named Player of the Tournament is an unbelievable feeling! It could not have happened without a great team around me. It\u2019s a really nice recognition of our performance and I would like to thank all involved at Mercury for organising such a great event.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

How does performing as a team in sport, compare with delivering large scale data centre projects alongside your team members?<\/h4>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s quite similar actually. You need to communicate, and you need to know what your teammates are doing so that you can play your own actions accordingly. Playing with colleagues who I work on a daily basis is a great experience, as we already have a good relationship and know each-other\u2019s strengths.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mercury is a diverse company with employees from 46 nationalities, what is your experience of working in an environment that has many unique cultures?<\/h4>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s really enriching to learn about all the different cultures that work on our global teams at Mercury. It\u2019s also great to develop relationships with these diverse people. I see that as a strength because it allows us to enhance our skills in making the most of everyone\u2019s unique skillsets and abilities.\u201d<\/p>\n
