Matejovsky named in Czech squad

Czech Republic coach Karel Bruckner has named his 23-man squad for Euro 2008, and found a place for Reading midfielder Marek Matejovsky.

The 26-year-old has six caps to his name and may find himself in the team as Arsenal's Tomas Rosicky misses out on the tournament through injury.

There is no comeback for Pavel Nedved, though Bruckner did ask him to return.

Daniel Pudil was a late withdrawal with a hand injury - with Southampton's Rudi Skacel called up in his place.
