Biography of the football player Sissa

Born: August 12th. Growth: See the family was large, Djibril was the seventh child. His father, Manga Sissa, a professional football player in the past, gave him to the Arle Avignon school, and then, in transit through him, Jibril was in the Youth team of Oser.

He also spent the next season on the bench, entering the field in just two meetings. Only in the third professional season, Sissa began to constantly go out at the base, and, I must say, it turned out very well for him - 15 goals in 35 matches. And a year later, Jibril Sissa, having scored 22 goals only in the French championship, shared the laurels of the best scorer of the championship with Pedughal Pedro Pauleta, and helped his club win bronze medals.

Sissa spent the next two seasons at a stably high level in the season again, this time single -handedly, won the Bombardier race, helped the club win the France Cup of the year. In that draw, Djibril scored six goals in six matches, including in the final match against PSG. As a result, he moved to Liverpool for 14 million pounds. But already at the beginning of the championship, or rather, on October 30, Jibril Sissa received a severe injury - fractures of Big and Malaya Berets.

At some point, it was even about amputation of the leg, but the doctors managed to avoid this. Sissa returned to the system only in April. True, he managed to participate in the legendary final of the Champions League against Milan, when Liverpool, losing, managed to equalize, and won a penalty. Djibril Sissa then replaced at the end of the main time, already in the score, but in the penal series he realized his attempt.

He scored the West Ham Cup final the match ended with the account, the Reds won the penalty shootout, and made a double in the match for the Super Cup. Those two goals are probably remembered by the fans of the Moscow CSKA - the army team led, but eight minutes before the end Sissa equalized the score, obviously playing his hand, and at an additional time he scored the second goal, this time according to the rules.

Despite the decent season, Sissa played 57 matches for Liverpool, in which he scored 17 goals and a good result to the indicated trophies, the club added the “bronze” of the championship, after its end, the forward left the team. The reason for this was his disagreement with Raf Benitz - the Red Mentor used Sissa on the right flank of the attack instead of the traditional position of the center forward.

But after the restoration, Jibril pricked 15 goals in 25 matches, and two of them in the final of the France Cup. True, this time the tradition according to which the Sissa team wins in the finale, if he scores goals, was interrupted - Olympic lost to the “Sosho” in the penalty shootout. But the football player with his game forced the club’s leadership to buy his transfer from Liverpool, and next year he played even better, amazing the gates of his opponents 22 times.

However, 10 goals of Sissa in the championship are almost a third of the total number that helped Black Cats keep a place in the elite, for some reason did not convince the club management to extend the agreement with Djibril. Other clubs.
