	Czech goalkeeper Petr Cech crowns great first season at Chelsea with new record - 03-02-2005 - Radio Prague
		Petr Cech, the goalkeeper for the national football team, has crowned a brilliant first season at the English club Chelsea by setting a new Premiership record of minutes gone without conceding a goal; he hasn't let in a goal in an incredible 781 minutes, or almost nine full games.
		Cech, who is almost two metres tall, also made a big impact at the 2002 European Under 21s championships, where he saved two penalties in the final as the Czech Republic won the competition for the first time ever.
		Cech was also first choice goalkeeper, something which would have been unlikely at a bigger club, given his age.

		Petr Cech, the Czech Republic goalkeeper, has been identified by Sir Alex Ferguson as a possible successor to Fabien Barthez after the French international was humiliatingly dropped for Manchester United’s crucial Premiership victory over Tottenham on Sunday.
		Cech, 20, who plays for Rennes, has caught the eye of the United scouts who have been watching the French club’s left-back Julien Escude — the subject of a failed bid last summer.
		Cech made his debut for the Czech Republic senior team against Cyprus in February 2002 and broke a record in his home country with a 1,120-minute sequence that took in domestic, Champions League and Under-21 matches.

		Cech may be dominant on the pitch but there is nothing cocky about him away from the playing field.
		Cech started out as a winger but ended up in goal as a nine-year-old when his team's goalkeeper was injured.
		Cech is even focused throughout our interview, his composure wobbling only slightly when a Russian woman whips off her coat to reveal a large chest in a low-cut top, begging for a photo.

	Petr Cech - Chelsea's man between the posts - 11-05-2005 - Radio Prague
		Czech football fans have had their eye on Petr Cech for some time now: the phenomenal young goalkeeper who has become known for preternatural calm in games of the highest order, whether in his recent Champions League run with Chelsea, or with the Czech national team.
		By now though Cech had earned international attention with Sparta and was soon on his way to the small French club Rennes, where, though somewhat out of the spotlight, he continued to build his confidence and style.
		As it happens the Dutch keeper is one of three that Petr Cech holds in the highest regard.

		Cech produced a stunning reflex save to stop Eidur Gudjohnsen deflecting the ball into his own net when Chelsea's defence failed to cut out a Moscow corner shortly before the Icelandic striker scored a vital second for the hosts in first-half stoppage-time.
		There was less for Cech to do after the break, although Eugeni Aldonin did warm the Chelsea keeper's hands with a fine strike from the edge of the box.
		Cech reflected: ``In the first half I made a couple of saves which were very important for us because they could have equalised and then it would have been much harder for us.

		But Petr Cech has bucked the trend this season and it's a measure of the impact that the Czech Republic star has made in his debut campaign that he's in the running for the PFA's coveted award.
		Cech, who had moved from Sparta Prague to French club Rennes for £3.3million in 2002, has more than lived up to his pre-capture billing and if any Chelsea fans had any doubts about the wisdom of splashing out £7m on a keeper, despite Roman's billions, they were quickly dispelled.
		Cech finished behind Juventus and Italy's Gianluigi Buffon in the voting, but was nominated ahead of such illustrious names as Dida of AC Milan, Casillas of Real Madrid and Kahn of Bayern Munich.
