Arsenal warmed up for next week’s Community Shield with Chelsea at Wembley with a 1-0 victory over Wolfsburg to win the Emirates Cup.
Theo Walcott’s second-half goal ensured Arsene Wenger’s side added to last week’s Barclays Asia Trophy triumph.
Cech has now helped Arsenal win two pre-season trophies in two games, and Arsene Wenger’s side can make it a hat-trick of success ahead of the Premier League campaign if they defeat Chelsea next weekend.
Cech, 33, was making his home debut and looked comfortable throughout against the German Cup winners.
Wolfsburg, who finished second in the Bundesliga last season, had several former Premier League players on show, including ex-Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner.
Former Chelsea midfielder Kevin De Bruyne, after his side had fallen behind, fired high and wide when he should have done better, with Ricardo Rodriguez stinging the palms of Cech on the hour mark.
FA Cup winners Arsenal now face Premier League champions Chelsea in the traditional season-opener at Wembley next Sunday.
