Czech Republic coach Pavel Vrba has, as expected, omitted midfielder Lukáš Mareček and forward Patrik Schick from his final squad for UEFA EURO 2016. Both players headed to the Czechs' recent training camp in Austria knowing they were likely to end up as reserves.

"They pleasantly surprised me, their standard has improved significantly recently," said Vrba. "They will get their chance in future." Schick is not included despite scoring in the recently friendly against Malta. "It is my decision," added Vrba. "I have chosen the forwards who were with us during the qualifying campaign."

While Petr Čech, Tomáš Rosický, Jaroslav Plašil, Michal Kadlec and Tomáš Sivok all have upwards of 50 caps, the rest of the squad is largely made up of younger players.
