Pavel Nedv?d – The Czech Cannon
Pavel Nedv?d
Nedv?d was one of the greatest players to step on to a football pitch. The Czech Republic midfielder won several titles in the Czech League and the Serie A with Lazio and Juventus. A player known for his energetic and seemingly never ending runs, an accomplished dribbler and a proven goal scorer, he was one of few players who won the Ballon d’Or and played professional football for 19 years.

But he too came only within touching distance of lifting the Champions League trophy when Juventus lost to AC Milan in 2003. In spite of helping Juventus knock out the defending champions Real Madrid in the semi finals, he was suspended for the final game after he got one yellow card too many in the competition. Nedv?d was a delight to watch on the pitch and the only European honours he won was a UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup with Lazio, the last time the competition was held before it was absorbed by the UEFA Cup.
