On June 7th Euro 2008 kicked off in Switzerland with the Swiss side clashing the central European side Czech Republic. Czech Republic substitute Vaclav Sverkos "crashed the party" for co-hosts Switzerland by scoring the only goal of the game to give the Czech's the 1-0 advantage when the final whistle blew. Sverkos struck after 71 minutes to defeat the home side already deflated by a knee injury to forward and captain Alexander Frei. The closest the Swiss came to having a goal was when they struck the under side of the crossbar. Karel Bruckner the Czech's coach said " they did a good job." Both teams had 3 subs and one of the subs for the czechs was Vaclav Sverkos. The other game of the day, Portugal vs Turkey turned out 2-0 in Portugal's favor.
