Semifinal: Germany v Turkey

[chelsea91]

My prediction.. Germany 2-0.. They will get 1-0 up and then Turkey will attack and Germany will get a second and go on to win euro

[Red Soldier]

Fuck Turkey, Turkey is only good in the oven, if that.

No shiraz you!
Go Turkey

shiraz you merlot i'll snap you at training

snap it

[Juventino]

Germany 2-1. Could be just a step too far for the Turks, especially considering they have only 14 players to choose from.

turks do not deserve to play in the semi's.

[King Ledley]

Fuck Turkey, Turkey is only good in the oven, if that.

No shiraz you!
Go Turkey

shiraz you merlot i'll snap you at training

knowing you, you probably will try...........and fail

[The Kop]

Germany in a porn movie.
Emre out, Tuncay out, Nihat out......thats their 3 best players.
plus
1st choice keeper volkan (who is crap anyway imho), the other emre (hack) out too. Servet and Metin 50/50.

It would be a miracle bigger than Greece's in 2004 if Turkey got anything out of this game.
Far far too many outs.
Maybe if Basturk and Tekke got along with Terim they would have much better options to goal than an english lad who was playing for Brighton 2 years ago (Kazim Kazim).


Germans on the other hand 100%. No problems, their only concern is complacency.


Nevertheless, an efficient performance. Germany at least 3-0.
Frustrated that they didnt cop any of the 2 groups of death though.....

[ronaldo07]

Absolutley. Germany have been very poor. Unlike Turkey to take the lead in the first half

[ronaldo07]

Nevertheless, clinical fiish by Schweinsteiger .. fantastic ..

and surprisingly, no yellow card so far for the turks

I hope they get few yellows, but then still win the game - cos I bet on TotalYellow Cards more than 5, and Turks to win the match

[Missing Post Count]

For what odds?

[ronaldo07]

Total Yellow More than five => 2.10
Turks to win the match => 7.2

[Missing Post Count]

How was that not a foul?

[ronaldo07]

How was that not a foul?

i agree .. but im happy with that
BUT WTF NOW ??
It said : We are apologized because we cannot receive any feed source from blah blah ...

COME ON I STAY UP TO WATCH THE MATCH, NOT TO LISTENING TO ALL THIS BULLSH1T

[Missing Post Count]

We lost pictures too, but it's back now.

[Missing Post Count]

And off again... and we've missed a goal

[Missing Post Count]

And now the commentary is ahead of the play... they're telling us what happens before we see it :?

[ronaldo07]

And off again... and we've missed a goal

thuoght it was just me ..
yeah, now its off again .. and those stupid commentator saying something that we already knew .. pfft ..
fking hell, i stay up for all these sh1t and still lost money ?? fek off

[ronaldo07]

turky coming back ..
yet we lost another goal

[Missing Post Count]

turky coming back ..
yet we lost another goal

I saw that one... and the commentary is out of sync. The commentator said it before the player got the touch to knock it in.

[ronaldo07]

guess maybe it's over for turks ..
lahm just scored a cracker !!

[Missing Post Count]

A win they didn't deserve. This time Turkey on the recieving end of a last gasp winner.

[ronaldo07]

FT 3-2
Hat Off to turks .. they show what is the real passion football is ..
Fight for every fking ball ..

at the end of the day, the better team lose a game

Without a doubt.

`fuck off.....what credit. Turkey were lucky all toarnament simple as that. Czech were 2-0 up and started playing dumb and cocky and then petr cech gifter turkey an equaliser. thats luck. Then croatia went on to dominate play against turkey who had fuck all chances compared to croatia, croatia then finally got the lead they deserved and turkey fluke an equaliser with seconds remaining......game over in penalties becoz the stupid croats were arguing with each other after the equaliser putting them in bad state of mind going into the penalty shootout. The only game they created some chances in was the germany game this morning, but, this time, the luck went in germanys favour. You can only be so lucky and for turkey it finally ran out. it was awesome!!!!!!!

greece on the other hand, won fair and square in euro 2004. greece did not concede a goal for well over 300 minutes of soccer. Starting from the beggining of the second half against russia in the group stages, greece went on to keep a clean sheet in quarter, semi and grand final. That is mental toughness and team character. Not the free wheeling shit turkey dished out with their jagged fluke last minute goals after being dominated by czech republic and croatia.

for the turks now, this game will be a very bitter loss to accept, so close, yet so far away......and im sorry to say but that was turkeys final. They got close but will be forgotten in years to come and still trophyless at the end of the day. I think they would say that losing in the group stages as opposed to the 90th minute of a semi final would be much easier to take........but for the neutrals.....that is what makes it so sweeeettttttttt.

oh so sweeetttt!!!

i mean for fucks sake. switzerland were leading turkey 1-0and had chances to extend lead and turkey jag 2 goals in last 15 mins. Their team went on a 2 1/2 week joy ride of emotion, momentum and confidence which was heavily supplemented with LUCK. People that understand soccer will have seen this and know that, when small nations lose big like that, it will be years before they gather the mental strength to go all the way, if ever!

hasselhoff ole!!

[username]

how funny was the baywatch music on setanta after the game showing highlights of germanys success over the past decades. haahah they love the hoff!

[BLACK KNIGHT]

Good, the Asians can now go home without a final place and no chance of winning it. Too bad . Now I dont care who wins it. No one will remember their achievment. The record books will show Germany 3 - Turky 2. Gobble gobble. Euro 2004 Champions Greece.

Germany, The protector of the European White Christian peoples
Russia the Orthodox giants
Spain , Catholics but with a Greek Queen.
All ok by me.

this is what the turkey coach said after the game and i quote, from esp soccernet:

"BASEL, June 25 (Reuters) - Turkey coach Fatih Terim said he would probably step down after his side were unlucky to lose 3-2 to Germany in Wednesday's Euro 2008 semi-final.


'Most probably after speaking to the federation president and the players I will choose to say this is what I have done,' he told a news conference after the match.


'I had declared earlier I would not be working in Turkey. I am a man who keeps my promises. So I will most probably go back to a European country."

ahhaha even the coach acknowledges that turkey is not really a european nation, speaking as though he just came from the asian cup! did he forget he was playing in europe already?. They are wannabe westerners. Their origins are from the far east.
