Match Timeline
Match Commentary
- Stand-out performer for the Czech side - right back Theodor Gebre Selassie. They did enough in a dramatic early blitz to secure a win, even after Petr Cech's howler. Greece never truely looked like grabbing a point. A contender for the tournament's weakest side. |
- The other two teams in the group will meet in 45 minutes time. Poland face Russia in Warsaw. Follow live - <a href="http://soccernet.espn.go.com/gamecast/_/id/334193?cc=5739" target="_blank">here</a> |
- Czech Republic then keep their tournament hopes alive with a 2-1 win sealed with two very early goals. Greece, meanwhile, face a near certain exit. |
