Injured Czech Republic captain Tomas Rosicky remains doubtful for the final Group A match against Poland at the European Championship.
Rosicky injured his Achilles tendon during Tuesday’s 2-1 win over Greece and had to be substituted after the first half.
Although a scan at Wroclaw’s military hospital didn’t reveal any damage to the tendon,Rosicky says he will miss the team’s final pre-match training. He says his condition is getting better and he plans to undergo a fitness test in the morning before the match.
Rosicky’s absence would be a major blow for the Czech Republic’s hopes to reach the quarterfinals. A win for either team in Saturday’s game would qualify it for the next round.
