Papa Bouba Diop RIP

Very sad. Pretty sure he scored the opener of the 2002 World Cup v France? A solid player. RIP.

Having looked him up on YT he was very much a Yaya type of player.....man mountain - strong - physical - enforcer in midfield with a great shot on him.

Don't really remember him for that, More the screamer for Fulham v the Rags late on. As you say very sad news.

They were reigning champs. He scored the opener and I think the spitter got a second. France went out in the group stages.
Fascinating that I've remembered that considering the absolute mess of alcohol that was had.
