捷克外交部在週三表示，捷克正對德國表示抗議，理由是德國拒絕讓現金不足的捷克球迷入境。一名捷克官員向德國外交部遞交的文件指出，德國拒絕沒有足夠金錢的捷克人入境是違反歐盟的規定的。

　　原文：World-Czechs protest German border controls

　　PRAGUE, June 14 (Reuters) - The Czech Republic has protested Germany's decision to turn away some Czech fans travelling to the World Cup on the grounds that they lacked the cash to stay in the country, the Czech Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday.

　　A Czech consul in Berlin has handed over a note to the German Foreign Ministry pointing out that Germany was violating EU rules by demanding that Czechs show they have enough money to cover the cost of their stay.

　　"The Foreign Ministry asked the German side in a (diplomatic) note to immediately ensure that such cases will not be repeated," it said. The Czechs joined the European Union in May 2004.

　　The daily Mlada Fronta Dnes reported on its Web site www.idnes.cz that dozens of fans had been turned away at the border because they could not prove they had 30 euros per day to cover their stay.

　　The Czechs opened their World Cup campaign with a 3-0 win over the United States on Monday and face Ghana and Italy in their remaining Group E matches.
