Czech Republic Players Celebrate Loss with Booze and Prostitutes

There are few things in life that should put a damper on a birthday celebration. Losing an international football match should not be one of them. According to reports out of Prague, members of the Czech Republic football team have been fined $47,500 because they held a birthday party for one of the players at the team hotel following a 2-1 loss to Germany on Saturday. A birthday party? Big deal, right?

Depends on your view of what constitutes a party.

Six prostitutes entered a room on the team’s fourth floor at about 5 a.m. where Arsenal playmaker Tomas Rosicky, Nurnburg’s Jan Polak, third-string goalkeeper Marek Cech, Spartak Moscow defender Martin Jiranek and AC Fiorentina’s Ujfalusi were drinking amid loud music, the tabloid Sip said, publishing pictures taken at the hotel.

Before the arrival of the girls, Ujfalusi, who turned 29 on the day of the game, was identified giving 41,000 koruna to the hotel receptionist, who later took the girls to the room, Sip said.

Tomas Rosicky denies the allegations, which is not much of a surprise since you won’t find many people admitting to partying with hookers.

The Czech Republic face Cyprus on Wednesday.
