QPR striker Cisse denies celebrating goal in 6-1 Chelsea win

QPR striker Djibril Cisse has explained last season's goal 'celebration' after he scored in their 6-1 defeat to Chelsea.

Cisse grabbed the Rs' late consolation that day and then pumped his fists and screamed.

He said: "It was not a celebration. Come on, how you can celebrate scoring when you are 6-1 down?

"It was anger. I was angry.

"I am a goalscorer and I was not happy to lose so heavily. It was a statement to show we deserved more than that.

"It wasn't a celebration at all and it really annoys me when people say that to me."
