Tomas Rosicky has been selected for
Czech Republic's Euro 2008 qualifiers against Germany and Cyprus
later this month.
The Arsenal midfielder has not played for three weeks due to groin
trouble and has had to watch from the sidelines as The Gunners
suffered disappointment in the Carling Cup, FA Cup and UEFA
Champions League.
However, Rosicky could return against Aston Villa this Wednesday
and Czech Republic coach Karel Bruckner is confident his captain
will be fully fit for the home games against Germany on 24th March
and Cyprus four days later.
With no other injury worries Bruckner has been able to name a
full-strength squad, including in-form strikers Jan Koller and
Milan Baros.
Petr Cech will start in goal having been given clearance by Uefa to
wear his protective headguard in the competition.
Tomas Zapotocny, David Jarolim and Marek Heinz have been
overlooked, but David Pudil retains his place after a promising
debut against Belgium last month.
Squad:
Petr Cech (Chelsea), Jaromir Blazek (Sparta Prague), Marek Cech
(Luch-Energia Vladivostok); Zdenek Grygera (Ajax), Marek
Jankulovski (Milan), Radoslav Kovac (Spartak Moscow), Martin
Jiranek (Spartak Moscow), David Rozehnal (Paris Saint Germain),
Tomas Ujfalusi (Fiorentina); Tomas Galasek (Nurnberg), Jaroslav
