Ralf Rangnick’s Austria go home after a narrow loss.
MERIH DEMIRAL was Turkey ’s unlikely hero with both goals in a 2-1 win over Austria on Tuesday that booked their place in the Euro 2024 quarter-finals.
Ralf Rangnick’s side had also thrashed Turkey 6-1 in a friendly in March, but this time they failed to recover from a nightmare start. Turkey’s raucous fans exploded in a deafening celebration, but they were nearly brought back down to earth straight away. However, Guler assumed responsibility in the playmaking role and nearly produced a stunning second for his side with an audacious attempt from the halfway line that drifted wide.Shades of Gordon Bank in 1970 as Mert Gunok makes a worldly save to deny Christoph Baumgartner a leveller - but Turkey held on to advance to the quarter-finals #EURO2024📱Live updates https://t.co/nKnJJUCeDu pic.twitter.
