00:00just to have a little word to their players as well
00:12of course a lot of new rules for the the FIFA World Cup that's upcoming as we just have a
00:19little look at the the goal again so well taken from from Schick just that little touch on his
00:27left foot there around the defender Hernandez and then just opens up his body and guides it
00:35perfectly into that bottom left-hand corner
00:46there will be five second countdowns for throw-ins and goal kicks
01:04expanded VAR powers as well which I'm not sure will necessarily go down too well everywhere
01:23some confusing rules as well
01:29VAR can actually now review corner kicks that have been incorrectly given
01:37as the free kick is played in it's a really good ball as well only as far as the edge
01:42of
01:42the penalty area is a decent strike back in but too many bodies in the way
02:14he's lost it in a dangerous area here
02:17so check excellent challenge and it needed to be made from Morales otherwise Guatemala are in
02:26trouble that
02:30yeah
02:30yeah
02:31yeah
02:39yeah
02:40yeah
02:58good ball down that left-hand side
03:04delivery in has taken a big deflection and a good header away as well
03:09Mendes done well once more
03:12as the 20-year-old he's pretty isolated up there but every time he gets it he's held it up
03:16nicely and
03:17waited for support
03:19cuts on to his left foot back onto his right takes a big deflection and it's a decent save in
03:25the end from
03:26Kovac
03:28they are posing a threat when they come forward Guatemala there's no doubt about that
03:34a few times they've had Czechia running scared
03:41to take a little deflection actually off off credit sheet
04:00to take a little more and for the same time he got the same time and he could get it
04:02in the end as well as the
04:02up all day
04:07probably
04:08that was to be seen in the end of the game
04:26let's not just love creche who was playing for Wolverhampton one just last
04:32season but it was only on loan so we'll be heading back to Girona
04:53pretty physical this game a lot of the time these warm-up games to a big World Cup can be
04:59a little
05:01timid a little passive obviously players just desperately trying to avoid injury for
05:07the World Cup just around the corner but this has been played at a good pace
05:21there's Mendes again who does well
05:28for the ball over the top just didn't have enough on it
05:32plenty of bodies forward though Guatemala when they do get the ball and that's stolen away
05:37nicely from Rosales Rosales who has probably had the best opportunity for Guatemala and
05:44so well Cechi were very nearly the architects of their own downfall there
05:48danger still not clear Rosales
05:53Santis, Santis shoots but it was a tame effort
06:16they are happy to play out from the back Cechi but a lot of the time they will then choose
06:20to go long
06:21from the defender good ball over the top I think he was just offside
06:28yeah he was looked as though he just mistimed his run ever so slightly
06:49so just under 15 minutes to go in this first half
06:54imagine we will see plenty of substitutions
07:03Miroslav Kubik
07:05using his entire squad pretty much
07:07in the last week or so that game that they played against Kosovo
07:12just six or seven days ago
07:14eight changes from that one coming into today
07:33Zoufout perfect first touch
07:38Zoufout cannot believe that he's been called on the free kick there
07:46look like he fell to ground reasonably easily there
07:51Modales
07:52let's have another little look
07:54won the ball well initially
07:55and then
07:57I mean yeah
07:58I didn't see a
08:00a single bit of contact there from Zoufout
08:02I can kind of understand why
08:04he's a little aggrieved by that call
08:19I think this one is going to go long
08:38I feel as though the long throw is very much back in fashion these days
09:00bad ball over the top but well dealt with by Crecci
09:11it's a great turn
09:15draws the foul from Franco
09:24haven't seen too much of
09:26of Provo
09:27haven't actually seen too much of
09:29of Schick either other than that fabulous goal that he scored
09:51here is Schultz
09:57two or three inside the penalty area
09:59Provo
10:04did well to get there first
10:05wanted it played
10:06down the line
10:07but Zoufout cuts back inside
10:09and the left-footed ball in
10:12far too close to the goalkeeper
10:13who again is urged on by the fans here
10:16to kick it quickly and kick it long
10:34in interessants
10:35I love you
10:36to point them
10:49in the deck
10:49in the deck
11:02Two-time World Cup runners-up, Cechi, you've got to go back a fair few years, mind you, 1962, the
11:10last time they actually made the final of the World Cup, also did so in 1934 as well.
11:18This will be their 10th World Cup appearance coming up.
11:35Souffal down the line to Provod, it will be another throw-in and presumably another long one, although Souffal decides
11:42to very cheekily take it quickly off the back of Provod.
12:02A bit of time here for Sadalek who goes over to the left-hand side to probe down there this
12:08time but didn't have anyone in front of him.
12:18Look at the space here for Souffal, Souffal's ball in is a decent one to Soucek but the shot is
12:25straight at Moran.
12:33Pretty tight angle to try and squeeze one in there, may have just been better standing that ball up towards
12:38the far post.
12:48Good tackle from Soucek but the loose ball finds its way to Mendes.
12:54Long ball over the top will roll all the way through to the goalkeeper.
13:01Just over five minutes to go in this first half.
13:05Czechia one, Guatemala nil, the goal coming from, no surprise, Patrick Schick, a 26th Czechia goal for him.
13:24It's Provod.
13:34And about 65% of possession today, Czechia, you would have expected that, maybe even more actually coming into this
13:41match.
13:44Again, a lot of space for Souffal here.
13:47Good ball as well to the far post.
13:49It was a well-struck volley as well but just too many bodies in the way.
13:56I feel as though Guatemala need to get a little tighter to Vladimir Souffal though.
14:01He seems to have acres of space down this right-hand side.
14:08His last two deliveries have both found a red shirt.
14:13Soucek who got the shot away from a tight angle and then the volley that we've just seen.
14:40That wasn't the easiest ball to deal with.
14:43Oh, and it's a complete mix-up between the goalkeeper and the defender and the strike is in.
14:49And Guatemala have their equaliser.
14:54And it is William Fajardo who scored it.
15:02It is not one that Czechia will want to see again.
15:07A complete mix-up between the goalkeeper and the defender.
15:13And they have been duly punished.
15:18It's a decent ball over the top.
15:21It was Crecci who initially didn't deal with it.
15:25And then the goalkeeper.
15:27Well, that could have quite easily been a free kick on the edge of the penalty area.
15:32Chalupet went barging into the striker.
15:38And he still had plenty of work to do here for Fajardo.
15:41There was a couple of red shirts lurking by the goal line.
15:47And he's done brilliantly to squeeze that one in.
15:50And just a few minutes before the half-time whistle.
15:54Guatemala a level.
16:21So the big crowd that have come out to support Guatemala
16:25have been rewarded for their efforts.
16:46The Czechia looking to bounce straight back.
16:50And it was Schulte who rose highest.
17:12Look how exposed Czechia were again there.
17:17A little fortunate that he wasn't able to pick up that loose ball.
17:43Still more than happy to
17:44play out from the back, Guatemala
17:47back themselves in
17:48tight situations
18:00I think Provod is saying
18:02that the throw-in should have
18:04been taken a fair way
18:06back there. He's giving it
18:08away here, although the free kick
18:10has been awarded to
18:12Guatemala
18:15Decides to take the free kick
18:17quickly
18:17And again, it's that combination
18:20of Chalopec and
18:22Covart
18:26It's that coming together that led to
18:28the Guatemala equaliser
18:30Bodies going everywhere
18:31Not for the first time today
18:33It's Jose Morales
18:34Who finds himself on the floor
18:39Not for the first time today
18:40from the to-
18:44Jacob
18:45and
18:45Without the end of the
18:46YouTube pick on the
18:46All the elements
18:50They can just pull up
18:52But I'm sitting here
18:53Anagat!
18:55This is the best
18:55Ha ha
18:55Froth's
18:57Figure the
18:58It doesn't know
18:58they don't see all the
18:58It doesn't know
19:22Sochek.
19:35All the way through to Sofout, it's a good block.
19:39Sure whether the effort was actually on target or not from Sofout.
19:46Continues to find himself in plenty of space down that right-hand side.
19:51So the 45 minutes is up.
19:52We're going to have three minutes of additional time.
20:13I think Guatemala have handled themselves very well in this opening half, considering the last time that they played.
20:21They lost by seven goals to nil to Algeria.
20:27So I can't imagine confidence was particularly high coming into this one.
20:43Sochek.
20:47Sofout looking for the overlap.
21:01It goes down inside the penalty area, but no real protest.
21:31We're going to be right here.
21:35We're going to be right here.
21:41so maybe time for one final chance in this first half it might actually go the
21:46way of check here here comes provod let's have so far behind him decided to
21:54go by himself and the throw-in is awarded to check here and you'd imagine
21:59this is going to be long considering we only have 40 seconds or so left of this
22:05first half so Sufell lining one up
22:10it's a good throw as well right at the goalkeeper provod back to Sufell
22:17first delivery is cleared away he could have actually left that for the goal
22:22keeper decided to take matters into his own hands
22:28Sufell again towards the far post got up highest but just couldn't quite control
22:34the header Tomasuchek and that should be that for the first half
22:52so the half-time whistle is blown
22:58it was Czechia who struck first 11 minutes into the game Patrick Schick on the counter-attack a beautiful
23:05move onto his left foot and just bent the ball into the bottom left-hand corner of the net
23:11but just four minutes before the half-time whistle a bit of a miscommunication between
23:16Matai Kovar in the Czechia goal and Stepan Celopek the defender and the loose ball found its way to
23:24William Fajardo who knocked it into the bottom right-hand corner to bring Guatemala level
23:30being a competitive and physical opening 45 minutes here it's been good to watch
23:36good crowd in as well creating a decent atmosphere here in New Jersey
23:44and the players will head into the half-time break and imagine we'll get plenty of substitutions
23:50throughout the course of the second half
23:57but at half-time here it is
24:00Czechia one Guatemala one
24:10welcome
24:11welcome to the
24:32the
24:37the
26:33It is a friendly international between Czechia and Guatemala, and it is finally poised at the moment at the halfway
26:42stage.
26:42Czechia took the lead reasonably early on, just 11 minutes on the clock when Patrick Schick bended in a beautiful
26:50left-footed strike from the edge of the penalty area.
26:53But just four or five minutes before the halftime whistle was blown, William Fajardo levelled things up.
27:01A bit of a miscommunication between Kovárt and Chalupek at the back, and Fajardo punished them.
27:09So one-all, and as we thought might happen, a whole host of changes for Czechia at the halftime break.
27:16So we've seen Chalupek, Solt, Schick, and Krejci all make way.
27:22And just confirmation going through at the bottom of your screen there.
27:26So Vladimir Derrida is on for Sadilek.
27:39Although I actually had Sadilek was still on, but we'll confirm that.
27:45Adam Chlozek is on for Pavel Solt.
28:05So Ladislav Krejci is off the captain.
28:08He's been replaced by Yaroslav Zeleni.
28:15And Stefan Chalupek is definitely off.
28:21He's been replaced by Thomas Holes.
28:26I'm just getting confirmation it was Sadilek who's gone off rather than Patrick Schick.
28:32So Schick is still on the fields.
28:35The goal scorer for Czechia.
28:38So Miroslav Kubek just trying to use all of his squad.
28:42Give everyone some minutes before the World Cup does get underway.
28:48Less than a week to go now.
29:03I'll check you saw plenty of the ball in that first half.
29:08He wouldn't necessarily say that Luis Moran in the Guatemala goal had to do a huge amount.
29:17A lot of possession without necessarily creating too many clear-cut chances for Czechia.
29:25There's the substitute Zeleni.
29:32It's well worked.
29:34Decent delivery as well.
29:36Comes all the way through and the effort is just over the crossbar.
29:40Wasn't easy.
29:41Came at him quickly there.
29:43Patrick Schick scored a beauty on his left foot.
29:46Just couldn't quite match that on his right foot.
29:51But a good promising early start to this second half of Czechia.
30:05Guatemala actually wanted a free kick.
30:07It would have been interesting to see.
30:07Get out of here.
30:08You
