Petr Cech says he has fulfilled his childhood dream of playing ice hockey.

Chelsea's technical and performance adviser was the man-of-the-match in Guilford Phoenix's win over Swindon Swindon Wildcats 2, saving two penalties after the scores finished 2-2 in normal time.

"It is kind of a childhood dream to come and play one game, which has [now] happened," said Cech.

"Nobody will ever take this away from me, which is really nice."

He added: "If you have a dream and you chase it and you do everything to make it happen... I have done that in football and all my dreams have come true.

"I said, 'this might be the last dream I was hoping to [tick off]'. But I worked hard for it.

"I think it can act as something for the young players to know that if you chase your dreams, then good things might happen."
