What do you mean Galatasaray, Fenerbahce´ye boyun eğdi? A better example would be: "Fenerbahce, Galatasaray´a boyun eğdi."

Slavica,

I do not know what relation you have to Serbia. But even if that relation is a very close one, there is no need to be a sore loser.

There is nothing ungentlemanly about my sentence "Serbia bows to Turkia", if it is clear that that the statement was made in reference to a single and particular basketball game.

 

Alpha,

I am from Serbia and it is clearely written in my profile. And I may be a sore loser, but I politely congratulated the winner and wished luck in today´s match. And, of course, I understood that your statement was made in reference to "a single and particular basketball game". Still, I don´t consider very gentlemanly humiliating alraedy beaten rival, not only in this  "single and particular basketball game", but generally. In winning one should also save the dignity, as in losing.

 

But of course, you can have different standards in being a gentleman...

It seems to me they lost the match in the mind from the beginning, I think Serbia win was enough for them, therefore not usual struggle from Turkish team, regarding the fans they were worst during the match but a little better during ceremony

in some sense, yes. Playing the final game was all we wanted, and I`m glad Lithuania beat Serbia, one of the ugliest teams in the tournament.

Thank you very much for your kind and honest comment {#emotions_dlg.flowers} I thought it was Basketball World Championship, not beauty contest.

 

Anyway, beauty is in the eye of the beholder
