World Cup Bound!

November 16, 2005 By Jeff 1 Comment

The Czech Republic beat Norway 1-0 in the second leg of the football play-off match in Prague and advanced to the World Cup in Germany, which begins in June 2006. This is the first time the Czech Republic has qualified since the split of Czechoslovakia in 1993. The official FIFA World Cup website is a great source for World Cup news.

After the game, the Czech team donned t-shirts which said “Odjíždíme! A vy? – Germany 205 dní”, which means “We’re leaving! And you? – Germany 205 days”. We can hear fireworks going off in the distance.

    Well done and well deserved. Best of luck in Germany. England v Czech Republic in the final. Wouldn’t that be something!
