Senegal striker El Hadji Diouf has had a 'good luck' message from his French club Lens ahead of Friday's World Cup tournament opener against holders France in Seoul.
Most of Senegal's squad play their club football in France and Diouf said: "They (Lens) sent me message wishing me good luck and good health.
"It was very touching. They have been very supportive and I appreciate it."
Montpellier defender Aliou Cisse is blase about the prospect of facing France in Senegal's first Group A match.
He said: "It is just a match. Even if Senegal was France's colony, many Senegalese are in France, many French are in Senegal, we use the same language, so there is no problem."
