Euro: Round of 16 - Austria v. Türkiye - Jul. 2

[Evilo]

Only if we count the Byzantines as greeks rather than Romans ;-)


They came out of the gates with great energy...though they have bogged down since...and they were a lot of fun to watch against Poland & the Netherlands.



They do press very aggressively



Eh, Gregoritsch or false-9 Baumgartner with Wimmer or Prass coming on.

Way before Byzance or Roma existed!

Set pieces the death of Austria.

 

[Power Man]

Let’s goooooooo

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Fraudstria.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Yep, that’s gotta seal it. Austria needed to score when they had that momentum.

Demiral pulling a Lillian Thuram

 

[gary69]

If Turkey wins this, I want to see Montella do airplane celebration from his playing days.

 

[luiginb]

Demiral with a game of a lifetime. Perfect defensively too.

That Liehart dude is lucky to still be on the pitch.

 

[Tryamw]

2-1

 

[Bounces R Way]

AUSTRIA

we in it baby

[robertmac43]

Set pieces the death of Austria.

and the saviour i guess.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Oh? OH? we’re not over yet!

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Demiral is the first centre back to have a brace in a Euro knockout game since Jean Francois Domergue for France in 1984

 

[luiginb]

Gregoritsch has 4 goals in 2 games against Turkey this year. Maybe he should have started.

Way before Byzance or Roma existed!

…before the Byzantines the Turks were still in Siberia ;-)

 

[Live in the Now]

Danso looks like a really good player. Lens probably going to make a lot of money off him.

Persia was there... And ultimately Turks come from them.

You sure you got the right player?

Unlike some other manager, at least Ragnick didn't wait until the last minutes to sub in his attackers.

 

[Live in the Now]

Yes...

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Unlike some other manager, at least Ragnick didn't wait until the last minutes to sub in his attackers.

That might be because Rangnick is a very good manager instead of a not very good one

As an aside, I’m glad that this tournament has made clear to casuals who associate him fully with Man U that Rangnick is a very very good coach

 

[gary69]

Danso looks like a really good player. Lens probably going to make a lot of money off him.

Couldn't cut it in his previous spells in the Pl or Bundesliga, haven't watched enough of him at Lens to judge if he has improved a lot whilst there.

 

[luiginb]

Yes...

He lost the header to Demiral and gave up on some great shooting lanes to force passes. Everyone and their mother knows he'll pass to the right every single time.

 

[Peen]

so selfish

 

[robertmac43]

Selfish shot there. 3 on 3 in the box and you sky it like that?
