Hello and welcome to live text coverage of tonight's Euro 2012 play-off first leg clash between Czech Republic and Montenegro.

Full-time: Czech Republic 2-0 Montenegro. The Czechs gain a stranglehold on the playoff tie with a convincing 2-0 first-leg victory over Montenegro in Prague.

A 30-yard Drincic free-kick travels harmlessly over Petr Cech's crossbar.

GOAL FOR CZECH REPUBLIC! CZECH REPUBLIC 2-0 MONTENEGRO (Tomas Sivok) A Tomas Rosicky free-kick from the left is beautifully curled in from the left flank and Sivok arrives at the near post to head home unmarked to give the Czech's a two-goal cushion.

We're into three minutes of stoppage time at the end of the match.

Montenegro sub: Delibasic on for Vukcevic. Czech sub: Kolar on for the goal-scorer Pilar

Rosicky jinks his way through the heart of the Montenegro defence and sets up Pilar, but it is a great last-ditch tackle as the midfielder was about to pull the trigger.

Gebreselassie attempts to free Pospech down the Czech right but he strays offside.

Tomas Sivok heads out for a Montenegro corner. The resulting delivery into the box is wasteful, but comes out to Pavicevic whose ball back into the box is caught by a back-peddling Cech.

Montenegro sub: Zverotic is on for Pekovic. Czech sub: Pospech on for Rezek

Pekovic is booked for obstruction on Rosicky, but worse for Montenegro it gives the Czech's a chance at goal with a free-kick from a promising position just outside the penalty area. Kadlec's effort is charged down and the Czech's appeal for handball, but nothing is given.

Tight call for the ref as Jovetic is flagged offside when attempting to receive the ball down the left wing. It was marginal and the winger looked level on second viewing.

We're into the last 15 minutes and Montenegro are struggling to even keep hold of the ball, let alone trouble Petr Cech in the Czech goal.

Montenegro now attempt to attack down the right but again the delivery is lacking in quality (something which can be said for both teams so far tonight).

Gebreselassie cuts inside but his effort at goal is deflected, taking the sting out of it, and Bozovic can gather with ease.

A free-kick for the Czechs out on the left is delivered into the box and Jiracek manages to win a corner for his team but, from that, Sivok is unable to make contact and Montenegro clear.

Milan Jovanovic is booked after returning the foul compliment on Rezek.

Montenegro have struggled to respond since going a goal behind, with several poor deliveries into the Czech box comfortably dealt with by the home side's defence.

Rezek is the latest player to be booked for a foul on Jovanovic.

Pilar was booked for his celebrations

GOAL FOR CZECH REPUBLIC! CZECH REPUBLIC 1-0 MONTENEGRO (Vaclav Pilar) Vaclav Pilar opens the scoring for the Czechs with a sumptuouos curling effort into the far corner that Bozovic cannot get a hand to. Rosicky had released Pilar and the midfielder finished with aplomb.
