FRENCH striker Djibril Cisse has dismissed as "stupid people" the CSKA Sofia fans who subjected him to a torrent of racial abuse during Liverpool's Champions League victory in Bulgaria.

Liverpool striker Djibril Cisse has vowed not to be ground down by racists.

UEFA expect to receive a report from their delegate later today into the racist chanting directed at Liverpool striker Djibril Cisse in the Champions League qualifier against CSKA Sofia.

The racial abuse suffered by Liverpool’s French striker Djibril Cisse will overshadow the fact the European champions are about to appear in the group stages of the Champions League for the fourth time in the last five seasons.
