00:06so just over 10 minutes to go oh what has happened there an absolute gift for
00:16Czechia and that is not a moment that Luis Moran will want to see again that
00:27is a shocker I think it's Visinsky who is actually put the ball into the the back of the net
00:36they're
00:36trying to play out from the back yeah it was Visinsky who took full advantage of a complete
00:55laps in concentration there from the Guatemala goalkeeper and that surely puts the result beyond
01:02doubt Czechia three Guatemala one
01:17so substitutes have had an impact here Choddy scoring the second goal and now
01:22Visinsky scoring his first ever goal for Czechia only his second appearance for the club
01:28or for the country I should say
01:43well it's been a very good effort from Guatemala
01:49and they were still very much in it with just over 10 minutes to go
01:56until what we have just seen
02:18it's quite a bit of pain here
02:20I have to get the medical staff on
02:27there's a few Czech fans in but they are heavily outnumbered
02:35good news is that Samajoa is back on his feet although he's still feeling that right foot of his
02:44is that the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the
02:59the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the
02:59the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the
02:59the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the
02:59the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the
03:00the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the
03:01the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the
03:01the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the
03:02the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the
03:02the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the
03:03the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the
03:04the
03:20It's well done from Hollis there.
03:33So Kovar is going to be the only player who started the game for Czechia to finish it.
03:39Every single outfield player has been substituted.
04:06So Kovar is going to be the only player who started the game for Czechia to finish it.
04:27This is the ball forward into the goal scorer Hollis, Czechia more than happy now just to knock
04:41the ball around, not desperately searching for goals, but they wouldn't mind another one
04:45and Vysitsky might get another one.
04:47Came all the way through to him.
04:51Here he is again.
05:00Oh, what a ball that is, but just couldn't quite control the effort, Charlie.
05:05It was difficult.
05:10Another big presence, isn't he, for Czechia.
05:15Do have some heights in their squad, that is for sure.
05:19They are going to be very dangerous, any form of set pieces.
05:32Got a very good goal-scoring record as well, does Thomas Choddy with Slavia Praha, 31 league
05:40goals in just 56 league games.
05:56Here he is again.
06:05Good ball as well from Choddy.
06:09He's done a good job to keep hold of it.
06:11Klozek, now Czori again.
06:16Zeleni.
06:35It's an excellent first-time ball.
06:38Oh, that would have been a very well-worked goal.
06:42It was not an easy strike, mind you.
06:46Ball was coming quickly.
06:47It was bobbling as well.
06:51Oh.
06:54Oh.
07:07Oh.
07:08Oh.
07:10Oh.
07:30It's a late challenge.
07:31Referees played the advantage.
07:43I feel as though there's been less of a threat from Guatemala in this second half than there
07:49was in the first.
07:50They looked pretty good actually going forward at times in the opening 45 minutes.
07:55Grabbed their goal as well.
07:57Closest they've come was that strike from the edge of the penalty area from Ordonez just after
08:04Cechia had scored their second goal.
08:07Decent chance there to level things up.
08:11Oh.
08:22It's Klozek.
08:24Lifts one up towards Johnny's.
08:27A good save from the goalkeeper.
08:32Oh, there was only one man winning that header.
08:39yeah he's disappointed is the big six foot six man
08:44just couldn't quite get enough pace on it
08:48it was a good save though from Luis Modan
09:20coming in
09:22we're going to win
09:40Can they give their fans one final thing to scream and shout about here, Guatemala, come out in their thousands
09:50here this evening and they've been treated to a good game as well.
10:10It looks as though Czechia are just winding down the clock and well they can start fully focusing now on
10:20the World Cup, all gets underway next Thursday.
10:27Czechia's first game on the 12th of June so they take on the Republic of Korea. Not an easy starter
10:39actually there.
10:47So many great teams, so many great players to watch over the next month or so, going to be a
10:54lot of fun.
10:59Czechia just delighted to be back in the big time for the first time in 20 years, 2006 remember the
11:07last time they actually played in a World Cup.
11:10It's been too long from their point of view, so they are desperate to try and make up for lost
11:15time.
11:48Sookka.
11:52Four minutes of injury time to play, maybe time for one more here for Czechia looking to try and put
12:00it on that head of Thomas Czori again but really over hit that cross.
12:25Free kick to Guatemala.
12:48Play again in a few days time to Guatemala, they're taking on Ecuador in another friendly.
12:52Play again in a few days.
13:30it's been a good run out for both sides here in pretty warm and testing conditions here in New
13:38Jersey conditions are gonna get pretty hot at times over the course of the World Cup of course
13:48played in so many different venues and areas I mentioned the travel that Czechia had a couple
14:02of times in Mexico playing an altitude as well that's not easy test your fitness I mean to to
14:10go from Mexico to Atlanta as well and then back to Mexico
14:26you
14:49Chory is after this, the goalkeeper's got to get rid, he doesn't want the same thing to happen.
14:57Absolute gift of a third goal for Cechia this evening.
15:06Oh, he just had his foot stood on there, completely unintentional.
15:12They do sting.
15:42One more foray forward for Guatemala, can they finish on a high?
15:48The pass was a little under-hit.
15:53And that will be that, the full-time whistle is blown.
15:58And Cechia will head to the World Cup, brimming with confidence.
16:02It's another victory, six games now, unbeaten for the Cechs.
16:07They took the lead after just 11 minutes when Patrick Schick cut in from the right-hand side and bent
16:13a ball beautifully into the bottom left-hand corner of the net.
16:18Guatemala were leveled just a few minutes before half-time when William Fajardo bent a right-footed shot into the
16:26open goal.
16:27And then it was pretty competitive for the opening 25 minutes or so of the second half.
16:32But an excellent ball in from the right-hand side from Dudera was headed in emphatically by Thomas Chory.
16:38And then just seven minutes later, a bit of a howler at the back for Guatemala.
16:44And Luis Moran, the goalkeeper, won't want to see it again.
16:47And it just allowed Denis Vyszynski to tap in from a couple of yards out.
16:54So, Cechia to take on the Republic of Korea in their opening game of the World Cup next week.
17:06Arrived at the World Cup in the most dramatic of circumstances with those two penalty victories over the Republic of
17:14Ireland and Denmark.
17:15And it's going to be fascinating to see what they can do on the big stage once again.
17:21The first time at a World Cup for 20 years.
17:27Can they make up for lost time?
17:30It is finished here in New Jersey tonight.
17:33Cechia 3, Guatemala 1.
