The goalkeeper of the Czech national team and the English champions Chelsea, Petr Cech, has already recovered from a skull injury and can return to the team lineup next Saturday in a crucial match against Liverpool.
One of the best goalkeepers in the world, Petr Cech, suffered an unfortunate collision with the opponent's goalkeeper at the beginning of the match, which Chelsea won 1-0 against Reading on October 14. After thorough examinations, it was revealed that Cech had a cracked skull and it was believed that he would not play again this season.
"He has returned and is ready to take the field in the next match against Liverpool. He is just an amazing player to us," said Chelsea's head coach Jose Mourinho. "I had to decide whether to put Enrique Hilario in goal for a few more weeks, but Petr has returned and he is ready to play."
The 24-year-old Petr Cech wore a special headgear yesterday and trained with the rest of his teammates, who mercilessly defeated Wigan 4-0 in front of their fans.
However, the misfortune did not end with the match against Reading. The replacement goalkeeper for Cech, Italian Carlo Cudicini, also suffered an injury at the end of the game, and since Mourinho did not have a third goalkeeper on the bench, England's national team and Chelsea's captain John Terry had to finish the match in goal.
After yesterday's victory, Chelsea remains in second place, trailing the leader Man Utd by six points, who also won 3-1 against Aston Villa yesterday.
