Samet Akaydin`s first-half opener wasn`t enough for the Turks as the Dutchmen bounced back with two goals in seven minutes to seal the semifinal clash with England at the Euro 2024.
Both teams started highly motivated into the encounter and traded attacks as Xavi Simons and Salih Ozcan unleashed efforts from the distance in the opening stages.
Turkiye turned up and gained momentum as Arda Guler`s strike missed the target just wide in the 32nd minute before his in-swinging cross allowed Akaydin to nod home the opener at the far post three minutes later, reports Xinhua.
