[Prenn]

lol

Seriously, head down, didn't look at the goal, turned his back to the goal when he walked to start the run up.

Feck, Croatia are worse than England at penalties :eek:

[gogunners14]

Istanbul erupts!! Congrats Turkish fans. Never seen a streak of comebacks like this ever. Bonne chance versus Germany.

Turkey goes on to face Germany in the semi-final.

Wow, what an amazing game.

[Lestard]

Germany - Turkey YEAH, this will be an interessting match, a pity the turks are missing so many players

[Clan]

He always looked like he was going to miss. He had the body language of an Englishman.

:D

Must have had a pre-match meal of fish 'n chips.

[sendorange]

Gutted for Croatia.

Will Turkey have any players left for the semi? Tuncay and Arda suspended, Nihat looked like it could be a muscle strain.

[FireTrapatoni]

srna crying like a baby, sorry dude should of put the kick on goal at least

[The Natural]

Simply amazing.

[Caesar]

How do you say "choke" in Croatian?

[gogunners14]

Wow, emre and Tuncay suspended for next game? With all their suspensions and injuries, their coach will have some tough decisions for the semi final.

[FireTrapatoni]

this is like what the greeks did the last time, except they are actually exciting to watch play

[SARay]

holy crap what a finish!!!

[sinner78]

[Txtriathlete]

What a game!
Germany must be as happy as the Turks if not happier!

[Beerking]

HAR! :D

[JeremyEritrea]

Yuck.

Congratulations Germany...they are headed to finals. I have a feeling they will dominate Turkey. Remind me not to watch that semi-final.

Are you kidding? Turkey is one of the most exciting teams in this entire tournament.

[sinner78]

Wow, emre and Tuncay suspended for next game? With all their suspensions and injuries, their coach will have some tough decisions for the semi final.

arda is also suspended aint he ??
looked like nihat injured himself at the end too.

[FireTrapatoni]

What a game!
Germany must be as happy as the Turks if not happier!
