Zlatko Junuzovic, Aron Jóhannsson, Anthony Ujah and Theodor Gebre Selassie all celebrated success with their national teams recently. Gebre Selassie has the most reason to celebrate, as the Czech right back qualified for the European Championship in France by beating Latvia 2-1, but it is going well for all of our national players.

The Czechs are now too far ahead in second to be caught in Group A, which grants them automatic qualification to the European Championship. Selassie was subbed off in the 90th minute but returned to the pitch after the final whistle to celebrate with his teammates.

Can "Juno" do as "Theo" has done?

Bremen midfielder Zlatko Junuzovic scored the match-winning goal for Austria in their game against Moldova. The 27-year-old scored the only goal of the game in the 52nd minute to earn the win for Marcel Koller's team. Junuzovic could do what Gebre Selassie did with his team tomorrow, as one point against Sweden would guarantee them qualification to the European Championship finals in France.

Werder strikers Anthony Ujah and Aron Jóhannsson also represented their countries during the international break. Ujah was substituted on in the 61st minute for Nigeria in the Africa Cup of Nations qualification game against Tanzania. The attacker, however, didn't score and the game ended 0-0. After the two recent games Nigeria are sitting second in their group behind Egypt. Aron Jóhannsson picked up some very useful experience as he featured for the USA in their friendly against Peru. The game finished 2-1 and Jürgen Klinsmann put Jóhannsson on after 72 minutes.
