Tomas Rosicky doubtful for Czech Republic

Rosicky doubtful for Czech Republic

Tomas Rosicky is unlikely to be fit in time for the Czech Republic's Euro 2012 quarter-final later this week.

The Arsenal midfielder was forced to sit out yesterday's 1-0 win over co-hosts Poland with an Achilles complaint.

Discussing his chances of featuring in his side's final eight fixture, the captain admitted that he is not holding out too much hope.

"There is just a small chance I will play in the quarter-finals but it's really not big," said Rosicky.

"[The injury] got better during the last few days until Saturday when I wanted to train and I felt pain again."

The Czech Republic will face the runners-up in Group B.
