Baros's appearance in group E opener in doubt
11/6/2006 10:52

Czech Republic striker Milan Baros is still struggling with a foot injury on Saturday, putting his attendance in Monday's Group E opener against the United States into uncertainty.
The Aston Villa forward, top scorer in the European Championships two years ago, has been suffering with the injury since last week's warm-up against Trinidad and Tobago.
"The chance Milan Baros will play (against USA) is very low, We will concentrate our efforts to prepare him for the other matches." Krejci said.
Baros failed to join his team-mates for Saturday's training and team doctor Petr Krejci admits his hopes of making the Group E encounter are slim.
"The perspective for the other matches exists, otherwise we would have to think of replacing him in the squad, " added Krejci.
