LFC star accused of punching fan Nov 6 2006 Daily Post LIVERPOOL FC star Momo Sissoko was last night at the centre of allegations that he was involved in a bust-up at a takeaway in the early hours of yesterday morning. It ended with one man being punched in the face following an argument. The incident occurred at the Hot 'n' Tender takeaway in Smithdown Road at around 3am, several hours after Sissoko played as a substitute in Liverpool's 2-0 victory over Reading at Anfield. It is believed a group of people became involved in an argument with 21-year-old Sissoko and a group of his friends after the midfielder was asked for his autograph. Gareth Hughes, of Wavertree, claims Sissoko punched his 18-year-old brother Gavin in the face, leaving him with a swollen cheekbone and black eye. The manager of the takeaway confirmed an incident had taken place. Liverpool FC spokesman Ian Cotton was unable to comment on the incident. A spokesman for Merseyside Police said last night: "We can confirm that officers are investigating a claim from a 19-year-old man in relation to an assault that is alleged to have occurred at 3.30am at a takeaway on Smithdown Road."
