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.
Cisse had to listen to offensive chants for much of the second half of Liverpool's 3-1 win over CSKA in the third qualifying round first leg.
He said: 'It's hurtful when it happens but there are a lot of stupid people sometimes at these matches. And as a player you can't do anything about it.
You can say that UEFA should take stronger action when it happens but I am not sure what they can do.'
-------------------------------------------------------
I was watching this match, I didn't hear any racist noises, but then again there was a lot of people in there and it probably was only a minority. Stupid people is right, UEFA have got to do something about this. :mad:
