The Mighty Turks !!!

Okay!~, I've neva post anything related to Euro2008 in detail yet coz i have a lot to say about each and every game but then malasla nak post every single comment. UNTILLLLL, the MIGHTY TURKS really captured my eyes and attention in this running EURO2008.
I would rather say them as "The Last Ditch Effort Heroes (LDEH)" or maybe "The Joy Destructors (TJD)"!

Why the "LDEH or JD" ?

1. Turks played a sloppy opening against Portugal where they lost 2-0 and considered as one of the weak teams around in Euro2008 which of course 'blinded' Switzerland and the Czechs. This game proved to be the whole turning point....

2. They played their second group match with one of the co-host Switzerland which saw Switzerland leading them 1-0 thanks to the Turkish-born-player Hakan Yakin who played for the Swiss. But then, a wonderful comeback by the Turks where Senturk who came on as a substitue in the 2nd half pulled one back and they stayed level at 1-1 BUT who will predict Arda Turan, the Galatasaray midfielder to score a deflected goal at the brink of full time in 90 + 2 minutes!!!

3. Third group game was against Czech Republic who were considered as favourites to reach the quater-finals and also to win against the Turks. All went according to predictions but only until the 75th Minute. The last 15 minutes is what I consider as a magic show by the Turks! They were 2-0 down and looks set to be kicked out of the group stage. Then came Arda Turan again to salvage a goal out of nowhere and it stayed 2-1 to the Czech till the 88th minute and all set to progress to the quater-finals. Brrraaahhhh, then came a blunder by Petr Cech (considered as one of the best keeper in the world) which gave Nihat Kahvechi his first Euro2008 goal and brought the game to 2-2. Just before I could think what, how, where, when and why- TURKS SCORED ANOTHER GOAL FOR GOD SAKE! It was Nihat again and this time it was really a fantastic goal! A Real Drama....~

4. That's not the end! As we know, the swept aside Czechs to progress to the quater-finals and this time around, they meet Croatia (also considered one of the favourites in Euro2008 since they won all their group match and conceded only 1 goal). So once again Turks are underestimated. The full time stayed 0-0 and both teams had decent chances and efforts. Then came extra time where they will play till the 120th minutes. I tought it will finish 0-0 and go into penalties, then tiba-tiba came Ivan Klasnic to score in the 118th minute! Got it?! 118th minutes balls! I was like muthafuckas, pe pu, pukimak and all! Tot thats the end of the road at last for the turks coz there's no way they can score! Just imagine, they had 118th minutes before that to score but they didnt and u think they will score a goal in 2 minutes! IMPOSSIBLE! DAAYYMMM. But but but....there's the but in every Turkey game! I dunno what jampi or bomoh or whatever tactic they use, they scored a GOAL weeyyhh in the 120th minutes! WHo would have tought that! This time, i was really on my knees and on the brink of "tears of joy" in front of my Tv.! (eventhough im not a turkey fan). WHO COULD BELIEVE IT???!! I really couldnt believe my eyes. WHat else, the game went into penalties and the Turks won it 3-1. Now tell me, aint the Turks Mighty?!



And now, they set up the Semi-finals against The Germans. Hmmm, I wonder how Germans gonna suffer now! lol.


Anyway, PADAN KASI MUKA CROATIA! HAHAHAH. Damn fuckin happy for theM! lol.

WHY?!
coz....

1. I really hated the croats since they were the cause England didnt make it to the EURO 2008 and...

2. They made me cry on the 22nd November 2007 when they beat England 3-2 in the Euro2008 qualifiers! Seriously, I cried wearing the ENgland jersey on in front of the TV.
