Djibril Cisse is confident his broken
leg has fully healed.
The Marseille forward set up the second-half winner Saturday for
Mamadou Niang as Marseille's 2-1 home win over Monaco moved it into
fifth place.
``It went very well. I'm very happy, and very satisfied,'' Cisse
said.
It was Cisse's first competitive match since he was injured June
7 in a friendly against China _ ruling him out of France's World Cup
squad and 16 league games this season.
``I tried to block out the last six months, the injury, all the
rest,'' Cisse told the club's Web site Sunday.
Marseille coach Albert Emon believes Cisse hasn't come back too
soon.
``He feels good in his body, and he has worked hard physically,''
Emon said. ``We still need to be patient, but he is back with us.
He's a big talent.''
