Angry goalkeeper Petr Cech has slammed the official who blamed him for Czech Republic's group stage exit.

The Czechs had been on course for a place in the quarter-finals before Cech fumbled a cross which allowed Turkey to draw level at 2-2 in their final group game before Nihat Kahveci struck a stunning last-gasp winner.

Afterwards, Czech Football Federation deputy head and team manager Vlastimil Kostal blamed the Chelsea keeper for the exit before resigning.

But a furious Cech has hit back at his accuser, saying: "It feels bad that some people in the Czech football leadership are not team players.

"Especially in bad times, they don't stand by the team and fail to support it.

"It looks like they turned their back on us only to avoid responsibility.

"Personally, that's a big disappointment for me."
