Fit-again Cisse back among goals
Djibril Cisse scored his first goal since suffering a horrific leg break to help Marseille seal a 2-1 win over St Etienne in France's Ligue 1. The on-loan Liverpool striker, who returned to action two weeks ago after a six-month lay-off, slotted home from close range after nine minutes. Just before the break Czech midfielder Marek Heinz pounced for the equaliser. But Mickael Pagis's 63rd-minute shot clinched the win to keep Marseille in the hunt for a Champions League place. Cisse, 25, who is on loan from Liverpool, broke his leg in France's last match before the World Cup. The French international striker joined Marseille on a season-long loan in July, with an option to make the deal permanent. Liverpool signed Cisse from Auxerre for a club record transfer fee of £14m in July 2004.
