[edit] Trivia
Zdenko is regularly compared to Jorge Campos, the famous Mexican goalkeeper, due to the fact that he has worn a variety of different kits throughout his glittering career. This has seen him regularly referred to as the best dressed goalkeeper in the district. His wide range of goalkeeper outfits, ranging from an all green Manchester United kit, to a Marconi Stallions team jersey, ensure Zdenk is always looking sharp. He famously pioneered the use of a light blue jersey for a goalkeeper, something that is still seen as years beyond its time.
