Czech Republic have confirmed that Roma striker Patrik Schick pulled up with ‘a groin problem’ during training.

Schick played 83 minutes of Czech Republic’s 2-1 defeat to Ukraine last week, but Coach Karel Jarolim admitted the 22-year-old could face another spell on the sidelines.

“We’ll be forced to make some changes,” he told reporters ahead of Monday’s friendly against Russia.

“I don’t know if Patrick will play because he had a groin problem.”
