At 3:00 AM on July 7th, Turkey will face the Netherlands in the quarter-finals of the European Championship. Before the match, Turkey captain Hakan Çalhanoğlu gave an interview to UEFA, stating that he hopes they can avenge the Netherlands like they did against Austria.
Turkey won 2-1 against Austria in the round of 16. However, the last time these two teams met, Turkey lost 1-6. The team successfully avenged their previous loss and advanced to the quarterfinals.
It is worth mentioning that the last time Turkey faced the Netherlands, they also suffered a 1-6 defeat. Regarding this, Çalhanoğlu stated: “Every match at the European Championship is different. In the round of 16, we defeated Austria, a team that I believe played the best. In my opinion, Austria was indeed a very strong opponent. We want to win again, make our fans and our country happy again. That is our biggest dream.”
“Of course, I haven’t forgotten the 1-6 defeat against the Netherlands. But there is nothing we can’t achieve. Nothing is impossible. In fact, before the match against Austria, we said we wanted to take revenge, and we did. We want to enter the match against the Netherlands with the same mentality.”
