Cisse annoyed by voodoo claims

Birmingham City’s new signing Aliou Cisse has rubbished claims that voodoo was responsible for Senegal’s success in the World Cup finals.

Cisse, who has joined the Blues from Paris St Germain in a £4.5m deal, skippered Senegal to the quarter-finals after their shock win over world champions France in the opening match of the tournament and their golden goal win over Sweden in the second round.
