The 31-year old did not feature for the Narodak in the last two matches against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Poland-c2983 and Portugal, after suffering from an Achilles injury.
With his country consequently bowing out from the glamorous European competition in the midfielder’s absence, the player from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 feels that his fitness problems might force him into bringing an end to his international career sooner than expected.
In total, he has capped 87 appearances for his country.
He told the reporters in an interview, “I've had problems with my health so I will take time to think. I would love to continue but I'm not stupid, I know I'm getting older and older.”
Rosicky sat helplessly on the bench as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629 goal sent the Portuguese into the semi-finals.
However, the midfielder viewed his country’s Euro campaign as a successful one on the whole, pointing out that their target before the start of the tournament was to at least go through from the group stages.
The Narodak suffered a 4-1 beating from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Greece-c2908 and Poland in their next two matches.
He added, “We can go back home with our heads held high... It was our goal to qualify from the group and try our best in the next round.”
Commenting on their quarterfinal match, the Czech skipper felt that his side should not be disappointed over their defeat, as they lost to one of the best teams in the tournament.
He opined that they struggled miserably to cope with the pace and the offensive approach of their opponents in the second half, and congratulated the 2004 runner-ups over their deserved win.
He added, “We lost to the better team and there is nothing to be ashamed of… I think Portugal deserve to go through, they were the better team. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Good-Luck-c39444 and well done to them.”
