Germany the big winners in last act drama 00:31am on 21 Jun 2008 What would be great for the neutral fan (ME!!) would be an early Germany goal. Turkey would definitely have to come out and attack then!

P.S. The teams finishing 2nd in their respective groups seem to be doing well. Anyone betting against Russia v Italy in the other semi-final??? :)
Germany the big winners in last act drama 00:27am on 21 Jun 2008 Turkey are heavily depleted attacking-wise for the Germany game and could find themselves defending and trying to play for a shoot-out AGAIN! I would rather see them go for it but a wise coach like Terim will use the players he has available to their strengths. They better hope they have Volkan back for that game though!

Turkey should really start with both Semih and Nihat up front. Play 4-4-2 with Marco Aurelio back. Kazim-Richards on the right, Mevlut Erdinc on the left and Hamit Altintop through the middle with Aurelio holding. With Emre Asik out, they will have to hope Servet Cetin is back AND Gokhan Zan improves ALOT! Keep Balta on the left and Sabri will have to be dropped unless he improves his defending.

1 thing I will say though... Germany's defence hasnt looked much good in any of the 4 games they have played. It would be best to test them thoroughly instead of playing for penalties...
