Netherlands vs Turkey 2-1

Sport by : (PRESSBEE) -

Turkey ended with a score of 2-1 in favor of the Netherlands. This victory has sparked discussions among football enthusiasts and analysts alike, as both teams are known for their strong performances on the field.

The game was intense from start to finish, with both teams displaying excellent tactics and skills. The Netherlands took an early lead in the first half, but Turkey quickly equalized, showing their determination to stay in the game. However, it was the Netherlands who ultimately emerged victorious, scoring a late goal that secured their win.

Vincenzo Montella's men will try to ride that support to reach the semi-finals of a European Championship for just the second time. On the other hand, The Dutch are the favourites to make the last four for the first time since Euro 2004. Ronald Koeman's side disappointed in the group stage as they only qualified thanks to being one of the best third-placed teams.

Just six minutes later Netherlands went ahead when Denzel Dumfries swept in a dangerous low cross which Muldur bundled into his own net under heavy pressure from Euros joint-top scorer Gakpo. It was the 10th own goal of the tournament.

Although Weghorst was not directly involved in either goal, his presence in the box unsettled a Turkey defence that largely kept the Netherlands at bay in the first half.

Zeki Celik and Kerem Akturkoglu had efforts blocked and the Netherlands lived to fight another day -- against England on Wednesday in Dortmund.

One key factor that contributed to the Netherlands' success was their solid defense, which effectively thwarted Turkey's attacking efforts throughout the match. Additionally, their ability to capitalize on scoring opportunities proved to be crucial in securing the win.

Overall, this match served as a testament to the competitive spirit and skill of both teams. It was a thrilling display of football prowess that left fans on the edge of their seats until the final whistle blew.
