Drogba boost for Marseille
UEFA CUP FINAL
Date: Wednesday, 19 May
Kick-off: 1945 BST
Venue: Nya Ullevi Stadium, Gothenburg
Live: On BBC2 from 1930 BST and live updates on this website

Marseille coach Jose Anigo believes his team's chances of winning the Uefa Cup have been boosted by the return to full fitness of star striker Didier Drogba.

Drogba was struggling with a hip problem but Anigo says the Ivory Coast hitman is now raring to go.

"He's feeling very well. It took us time to cure him but he will be at the final against Valencia," said Anigo.

"We hope he will boost our chances of winning. If he's on the pitch, it means he's at the very best of his ability."

The 26-year-old has scored 11 goals in European competition this season and a further 19 in the French league.
