The Czech national football side is preparing for its friendly match
against Serbia, the teams' only preparation game before the
qualification rounds for the European Championship begin in September.
Players have met in Prague ahead of the game, which takes place on
Wednesday. The team will be without a number of injured players and it
will be its first game without midfielder Karel Poborsky, who retired
following the World Cup. One of the players expected to take to the
pitch is star midfielder Pavel Nedved, but there are rumours the game
may be his final international cap. Nedved, who plays for Juventus
Turin, has scheduled a press conference on Tuesday to announce whether
he will stay on with the national side after this week or make
Wednesday his final appearance.
