    Tunisian star player to sit out World Cup

     PARIS (AP) -- Tunisia's star midfielder will not play in the World Cup because of a knee injury.
     Hassene Gabsi, who has torn ligaments in one knee, must undergo surgery and will be out for six months, according to l'Equipe, a French sports daily.
     Gabsi earned his reputation as the Tunisian team's key player during the African Cup of Nations semifinals in Burkina Faso last February.
