The pictures above show Petr during the Champions League final
against Manchester United on 21st May 2008.
The top right photo shows
Cech leaping to his right to palm away Cristiano Ronaldo's penalty in
the shoot-out
whilst the left hand picture shows Petr, fists clenched,
shortly after the save. Sadly for Cech, his efforts were
not sufficient
to win the cup for Chelsea, with John Terry and Nicolas Anelka both
missing from the spot for the Blues.
