Apparently, the key to making Papiss Cisse ludicrously angry is to be really good at shielding the ball
That’s what Phil Bardsley found out during Stoke’s Premier League clash against Newcastle at St James’ Park.
As you can see from the clip, the English defender did a fantastic job at protecting the ball from the Senegalese striker. His reluctance to give away the ball was made all the more impressive by Cisse trying everything in his power to somehow win possession back.
Watch as the forward almost climbs on top of Bardsley’s back as the defender was trying to get to his feet. Hilarity ensues when the duo go stumbling to the ground and Cisse confronts Bardsley aggressively, despite being clearly at fault for the incident.
