Cech back in training for blues

Goalkeeper Petr Cech took part in training on the eve of the Champions League semi-final second leg with Atletico Madrid a week after being ruled out for the season by manager Jose Mourinho with a dislocated shoulder sustained in the first leg.

Cech departed after 20 minutes of last Tuesday’s first leg, which finished 0-0, to be replaced by Mark Schwarzer with Mourinho subsequently ruling his number one out for the rest of the campaign, but it remains to be seen if the Czech has made a surprise recovery.
