Squad details correct up to
and including Czech Republic's match against Estonia on 14 October 1998.
Diary
The Czech
Republic had several players unavailable for selection for their first meeting
with England, most notably their leading defender, Jan Suchoparek.
Czech hopes took a further blow when a knee injury forced midfield star Pavel
Nedved to withdraw from the 18-man squad coach Jozef Chovanec named.
Czechoslovakia had never won at Wembley, but the successor nation's team
arrived on the crest of a 10-match unbeaten streak, nine of them coming under
Chovanec, who was appointed after the failure to qualify for the World Cup
1998 finals from a difficult group that included Spain, Yugoslavia and
Slovakia.
