Assistant linesman and fourth official show up drunk to Czech first division match

A Czech assistant referee and linesman have been banned by the national football association for being drunk in charge of a first division football match. Fourth official Marek Pilný and linesman Jiří Jech were both visibly worst for wear at Wednesday’s match between Slavia Prague and relegation threatened Příbram. During the game the linesman was reportedly seen relieving himself on the pitch when the action was at the other end. Pilný was visibly unsteady on his feet and did not appear for the second half. The head of the Czech football association commented Thursday that everything could be seen in football.

"Everything could be seen in football"?  That's an understatement. 

There's also footage from the match on Youtube:
