DEMIRAL FOR THE DOUBLE!
AND WHAT A CORNER STILL PERFECTLY STRUCK BY GÜLER AT THE FIRST POST! 2-0 FOR TURKEY!
Arnautovic misses the target with his lob
He was out of the game and probably knew it, but that didn’t help confidence.
Posch can’t arm properly!
The Austrians are becoming more and more dangerous, with a presence in the box and players who arrive with a good start.
This time, Laimer tries to do everything by himself.
Great breakthrough, but the midfielder slips when he shoots at the edge of the area.
ARNAUTOVIC MISSED HIS DUEL!
What control and what a pass from Laimer, who offers a duel to his captain. But Arnautovic does not poke the ball above the goalkeeper and stumbles upon it!
Gregoritsch is on the receiving end of a long cross from Posch
It’s hard to put in the power despite everything, but the attacker will allow Arnautovic to be supported and to put in the size.
Austrian opportunity right away
The shot goes wide, but the ball appeared to have been centred from outside the field.
Here we go again, with a double Austrian change!
Mwene and Schmid are replaced by Prass and Gregoritsch.
It’s the break !
Turkey made the difference early in the match, scoring after 2 minutes from a corner.
The set pieces were also dangerous at the start of the match, as were the Austrian high recoveries.
But the Turks settled defensively, and it’s been a little less heated since then.
Baumgartner is almost surprised to be able to shoot
A low cross crosses the defense and reaches his foot, which he opens without finding the frame.
It’s more chopped
We often see fouls and players on the ground.
Yüksek also receives a yellow card
His legs hook those of an Austrian who had passed in front of him/
Warning for Romano Schmid
Snap along the line on a transition.
Long touch for Austria
This brings a bit of danger, with a ball taken and which falls like a bell in the surface, but Mert Günok reads well and comes to catch it.
How difficult it is to create something in attack for the Austrians
The Turks know how to be aggressive in their own 30 metres.
Austria struggles against tight block
The Reds are doing a lot of fruitless rotation, and are being whistled by the opposing supporters.
Little weak time
So much the better for the Turks, who lose the ball less quickly and can breathe by keeping it a little.
Yilmaz tries the little bridge again
This time, the defender does not let himself be fooled and Austria has a chance to counterattack, which does not work out.
Yilmaz’s Super Overflow
Even though he sent a cross a little too far back, the Galatasaray winger managed a magnificent little bridge move.
Güler still works the corners well
Two in a row: the first is cleared for a corner, the second is taken and goes just over the top of the skylight.
Merih Demiral joins a short list
There are now 6 players who have scored at the Euro while playing in a non-UEFA championship.
Guler attempts lob from midfield
The Turks are having trouble settling into the opposing camp, so they have to try something else. It goes way off the mark.
Austria is spinning
Turkey runs after the ball, without its block being put in too much difficulty.
Danso clears a difficult ball
A strong low cross in front of the goal, which doesn’t worry the Lens player that much.
The choreography of the Austrian supporters on the corners is worth noting.
Their protégés attack in front of them, and always have a goal to come back to.
Sabitzer’s free kick is blocked by the wall
The ball, however, ends up for a corner.
Kökçü is warned
He will miss a possible quarter, but above all offers a free kick about thirty meters from the goal.
We saw the fastest goal in the history of the Euro knockout stages
And the second fastest in the history of the competition (behind Bajrami’s during Albania-Italy this year!).

Liehnart is alone on a corner
His header goes over, but it promises to be a spectacle if every set piece is a goal ball.
HOW DID AUSTRIA NOT EQUALIZE?
Corner also taken inwards, which flies in front of the goal line without any of the three Austrians managing to push it into the back of the net!
The Austrians are not stunned
They win high balls and go forward whenever possible. It looks promising!
Baumgartner sends a shot from the edge of the area in quick succession
The trajectory finally escapes the goal while the goalkeeper seemed beaten. It starts strong!
TURKEY SCORES FROM THE FIRST CORNER!
Corner with the inward trajectory of Arda Guler which is not taken by any teammate, but ends up on the player on the line. He clears to a teammate, the goalkeeper saves and the ball on Demiral who hits hard!
Already a player launched in depth on each side
The Turkish goalkeeper comes out in front of Sabitzer, then an Austrian defender puts it out for a corner.
The Austrians were allowed to stay in red
The Turks are all in white.
Let’s go !
Kick-off by Austria!
The Austrians are also well represented
But their anthem is softer, and it’s hard to compare the two fanbases in sound.
It’s anthem time!
We hear that the Turks are out in force, especially since all the supporters are singing.
RB Arena acquired for the cause of the Turks
At least 20,000 Turkish fans are expected on Tuesday for the round of 16 match at the RB Arena, where 40,000 people are expected to be present.
