[Judge Judy]

i'd think Cros should get up, but think Turks have what it takes to beat them. will be a cracker of a match

[diegom]

Croatia to win
3-1

[Juventino]

Croatia 2-0

[adriano10]

looks like it has the makings to be a cracker... a fiesty one at that!

I think Croatia will be too strong for the Turks (if the group form counts for anything) who were lucky to get past Petr Cech.

Modric to run amok

[Piola]

Croatia 3-1 Turkey

[delfino_1936]

Will be a great match, Croatia to jag it 2-1

[username]

croatia 3-1

[TM87]

it will be a cracker i think it might go to the shoot out. Croatia much stronger squad but its knockout football and stranger things have happened.

[Missing Post Count]

Twice now we've be shown not to write Türkey off. Looking forward to this one.

[BAGGIO 15]

This will be a very tight one, anyones game.

[Roman Gladiator 04]

Croatia to win 2-1.. last gasp winner

[Piola]

would the Socceroos be able to get a draw against the Croats now??

highly doubt it.

this is a team that has moved on from the World Cup to become IMO one of the world's top 10 national teams.

Shows what can be achieved when the country knows their football and reflect on their failure rather than whinge about a controversial decision.

[Right Winger]

Croatia in a landslide. Turks emotionally drained after showing previous courage but that only gets you so far. There are as many Turk players out injured/suspended as Croatia have coming back from being rested.
Croatia also have an unofficial 12th player in Bilic on the wing. 4-0 to the Croats.

[ComeOnYouBlues]

Croatia to win 2-0
Olic and Modric to score

[notisre]

another late nehat double 2-1 !! a game worth getting up for!

[ronaldo07]

[ronaldo07]

i'd think Cros should get up, but think Turks have what it takes to beat them. will be a cracker of a match

no matter what's the result is, ur statement will stand correctly

Croatia have lost just one competitive game in the last 17, 0-2 v Macedonia.

Half the goals scored by Turkey in the last five competitive games have been netted by Nihat.

The only competitive match between both sides took place at the City Ground, the home of Nottingham Forest, in Euro 1996. Slaven Bilic was part of the team that defeated Turkey 1-0 in their first match of the tournament.

Fatih Terim was manager of Turkey that day, as he still is now.

The Turks have yet to score in the first half

For the first time in their history Croatia have won all three games in the group stage of a tournament finals.

Turkey have already equalled their best run in a European Championship, they got to the quarter finals in 2000 when they were knocked out by Portugal.

[Madridista612]

I'm dying of boredom here, almost as bad as watching the Italian national team play

[Madridista612]

except without the cheating

[Missing Post Count]

Yes, it has been a relatively crap game.

[Missing Post Count]

Fuçk extra time... please go straight to penalties.

[Madridista612]

Hahaha this game has been monumentally bad except the last 5 mins, best we can hope for is penalties.

[Missing Post Count]

❚ I was hoping Türkey would do what Türkey do best and score a stoppage time winner.

[Madridista612]

To be honest after putting up with 90 minutes, all I really want is penalties, I'll feel cheated if someone scores a tap in and wins the game. By the way, did anyone see the hottie that they cut to when Klasnic was coming on....where's that girls of euro 2008 thread because someone should definately put her in it.

[Missing Post Count]

That free kicks sums up this game

[Madridista612]

I feel so cheated right now.

Rüstü... you idiot !
