Nedved limps off for injury check

Czech playmaker Pavel Nedved limped off the training field yesterday but coach Karel Brueckner played down concerns that he had suffered a serious injury.

Nedved, 33, was able to jog after treating his left knee with an ice pack.

Striker Milan Baros is still not training because of a foot injury and any injuries to other high-profile players would be bad news for a team keen to build on their Euro 2004 performance in which they reached the semis.
