Nedvěd: Czech World Cup performances below expectation so far

The general manager of the Czech national football squad, Pavel Nedvěd, says that the team’s performances so far at this year’s World Cup in North America have been below expectation. Nedvěd, who was a European Player of the Year and won 91 international caps with Czechia, told journalists he believed coach Miroslav Koubek would find the right tactics to overcome Mexico in the team’s final group game.

The Czechs lost 1:2 to South Korea in their opening game and threw away a lead to draw 1:1 with South Africa in their second.
