Petr Cech - Simply Gracious!!!

A goal down and facing a penalty, Czech goalkeeper, Petr Cech, tried to help Asamoah Gyan avoid the yellow card during the Ghana-Czech game.

Czch, who made a string of saves to keep his side in the game until Muntari's late second, tried to prevent the referee booking Gyan before the Modena striker's missed second-half penalty.

Gyan received a yellow card for taking the spot-kick early, but Cech revealed he had been fooled by a fan's whistle in the crowd.

"That's why he took the penalty because somebody blew the whistle," said the Chelsea keeper.

"He was not guilty of that (taking the penalty early)."

The yellow card means Gyan is ruled out of Ghana's next game against the USA.
