England next up for Oranje
Marc Mayo6 July 2024

An own goal by Mert Muldur completed a Netherlands comeback as they beat Turkey 2-1 on Saturday to book a Euro 2024 semi-final meeting with England in Dortmund.

Turkey took the lead in the 35th minute after the Dutch failed to clear a corner, leaving Arda Guler to cross perfectly to the back post with his right foot for defender Samet Akaydin to head home.

Guler went close to adding a second early in the second half when he hit the post with a free-kick, and it was to prove a costly miss when Dutch defender Stefan de Vrij equalised with a powerful header in the 70th minute.

That goal gave the Netherlands the lift they needed, Muldur turning the ball into his own net under pressure from Cody Gakpo and the Dutch hung on despite a number of late opportunities for Turkey.

A truly excellent performance from Turkey on the pitch in all but one of their games, they leave with their heads held high and surely capable of making the next World Cup.

Arda Guler is a player we will be hearing a lot about in the coming years but he isn’t the only talented youngster amongst their ranks.
