The Czech national team has remained without its main sponsor - the company Gambrinus, which does not want to risk its reputation by cooperating with the corruption-ridden Czech Football Association.

The country's largest brewing company supports Czech football at all levels since 1997, however, after the president of the Czech Football Association was dismissed at the beginning of this week, accused by the police of abuse of power during the tenders for mercenary purposes.

In addition, in Czech football, there are cases of corruption and contractual matches, which, according to the leadership of Gambrinus, negatively affects the image of the company.

"We will continue to help only the Czech football of the lowest level, where not everything is sold and bought, and people get a real pleasure from the game," said Marek Dvorak, marketing director..
