Djibril Cissé, the French international of Ivorian origin, played a crucial role in sparing Queens Park Rangers from another defeat. He scored the equalizer in the 66th minute against Reading, resulting in a 1-1 draw and earning his club a valuable point. This performance temporarily lifted Queens Park Rangers from the bottom of the Premier League standings. However, the season remains challenging for Cissé and his club, as they currently occupy the 19th place with only 4 points.
In another match, Yohan Cabaye contributed to Newcastle securing a draw (1-1) against Liverpool. Luis Suarez’s goal prevented Liverpool from suffering a worse outcome.
