The Czech Republic face a “final” in their World Cup qualifier against
Armenia at Prague’s Eden Arena on Friday night, the team’s coach
Michal Bílek said on Thursday. He said his team – who are currently
third in their group, one point behind Bulgaria – need to win three
of their four remaining games if they are to reach Brazil next year.

Goalkeeper Petr Ä~Lech said that while the Czechs had beaten the
Armenians 3:0 in Yerevan, they were a tough opponent who performed
better on the road. On Tuesday the Czech Republic will play Italy away.
