31.05.2005 - Cisse on target in France win
Djibril Cisse scored on his first International appearance since returning from injury, in France's 2-1 win over Hungary tonight.
The Reds striker netted for his county after just 10 minutes, when he fired in from close range to grab his first goal for Les Bleus since September's World Cup qualifier against the Faroe Islands.
Cisse, who scored one of the penalties in Liverpool's Champions League final win last week, played 75 minutes of the match before being replaced by Barcelona's Ludovic Giuly.
His return to the national side will be a boost for coach Raymond Domenech, with France locked in a tight four way battle with Israel, Switzerland and Republic of Ireland for a top two place in their World Cup qualifying group.
