Turkey will face the Netherlands in the quarter-finals of the European Championship at 3 a.m. on July 7. Ahead of the match, Turkey’s captain, Calhanoglu, spoke to UEFA’s official website, expressing his hope to avenge their loss to the Netherlands, just as they did against Austria.
In the round of 16, Turkey defeated Austria 2-1. However, in their previous encounter, Turkey suffered a 1-6 defeat. They avenged that loss and advanced to the quarter-finals.
It’s worth mentioning that Turkey also lost 1-6 to the Netherlands in their last meeting. Commenting on this, Calhanoglu said, “Every match in the Euros is different. In the last 16, we beat what I believe was the best team, Austria. They were certainly a very strong opponent. We want to win again and make our fans and country happy once more; that’s our biggest dream.”
“Of course, I haven’t forgotten the 1-6 loss to the Netherlands. But there’s nothing we can’t achieve. Nothing is impossible. Before the Austria game, we talked about wanting revenge, and we did it. We want to approach the match against the Netherlands with the same mindset.”
