Newcastle United's Papiss Cisse Says Chelsea Goal Is Career Best

"It was a wonderful goal. It was the best goal of my career - I was so happy to score it. "When the ball came to me, I was only thinking about scoring. It was an instinctive finish. "I was also pleased with my first goal. It was important for the team. It was a good evening for me and the team. "I came to the Premier League to show my quality, and everything is going well. I'm enjoying my football - everything is good on and off the pitch."

Cisse's brace has kept Newcastle in the race for a Champions League finish and with everything to play for with two games left to go of the season. They take on Manchester City at home on Sunday and then Everton away at the Merseyside, where if they were to win both games, any slip up from Arsenal or Spurs would see them finish in the top four. Cisse, who made his first introduction to English football on a scoring debut on February 5th, has been scoring left, right and centre and will be chomping at the bit for scoring more on Sunday. The former Freiburg striker said:

"It's not going to be easy, but we have confidence, which is important. We believe in each other. "We hope to play in the Champions League, and we will work hard to achieve that."
