Same again for Senegal

DAKAR, Senegal (Reuters) -- Senegal have named the same squad for the World Cup that finished runners-up at this year's African Nations Cup, adding just a third goalkeeper.

The uncapped Kalidou Cissoko from champions Jeanne d'Arc is the only newcomer and the only locally based player in the squad named by French-born coach Bruno Metsu.

All but two of the players are based in France, who face the west Africans in the opening match of the World Cup in Seoul on May 31.

Senegal are playing in the World Cup finals for the first time, having surprised more fancied teams in the qualifiers. They also reached their first Nations Cup finals in February, losing the final only on penalties to Cameroon in Bamako.
