Senegal midfielder Khalilou Fadiga is hoping he and his team-mates can match the performance that brought a shock victory over holders France when they tackle Denmark in Daegu on Thursday.

Fadiga, who was accused of stealing a gold necklace from a South Korean jewellery shop before the tournament started but was later cleared, knows Senegal served up a gem of a display against Roger Lemerre's men in Seoul.

And Fadiga sees no reason to fear the Danes providing the Lions of west Africa can continue where they laid off against the French.

"We're not afraid of Denmark," said Fadiga. "We just need to play well in this match as we did before."

Senegal, in their first World Cup finals, had the surprise factor on their side when they faced France and Papa Bouba Diop secured a famous victory with the only goal of the game.

Bouba Diop certainly seems to have taken the fame thrust upon him in his stride, saying: "It's like usual - we don't feel much pressure."

Bruno Metsu's side are hoping skipper and centre-back Aliou Cisse will recover from a calf strain in time to face the Danes.

For the Danes, Stig Tofting seems likely to recover from a foot injury to take his place in central midfield alongside Thomas Gravesen.
