Quoting thehandsom: I think, it was a mistake to score the first goal.
It was the only match we undoubtedly deserved to win  |
How can it be a mistake?

Yes that - and the first time they wore red shirts :-S. Seemed like a bad omen from the start. It was a fantastic game though and Turkey should be very proud of their team!
If all their players had been fit it might have been a different story.

well turkey could win, cos the german played very bad...
though this result has been good for the present and close future of human beings... cos turks kill or injure whether they win or lose... (23 injured 3 murdered after the match with croatia, which they WON)
tonight when i was walking back home after the match about 15 turkish fans were lynching one person god knows for what reason...
i think it s been good for humanity that turkey has at last been eliminated, a very late conclusion though...
congratulations germany, but they also didnt play so good as to deserve this.

I understand there is often violence after football matches - this happens in the UK and many other countries - it just seemed like a lot of people injured and killed :-S

The armies of the Ottoman Empire could not conquer Vienna. Eleven soccer players from Turkey can.
That's the way many Turks feel, a heady, near-mystical sense that Turkey's underdog run to the European Championship semifinals involves more than goal scoring. To these fans, it's about pride and patriotism; ethnic identity and insecurity; centuries of conflict and coexistence; and the prickly, modern-day relationship between Turks and the West.
"There is an unwritten condition here in this country, the desire to show to the world what the Turks can do as a soft power," said Huseyin Bagci, a Turkish academic. "The Turks are bringing a new flair to Europe. It's like putting something spicy into food."
But it's not just us versus them. The team has showcased Turkish skill, tenacity and — even the most fanatic of fans grudgingly admit — mind-bending luck in comeback wins against the Swiss, Czechs and Croats.
Turkey's opponent in Basel, Switzerland, on Wednesday is Germany, home to nearly 3 million Turks, some of whom moved there as "gastarbeiter," or guest workers, for low-paying jobs in the 1960s. Two of Turkey's top players, Hamit Altintop and Hakan Balta, grew up in Germany, came through Germany's soccer system and play for Bundesliga teams.
