[Suprah]

in the last minuts of the game from 70 - 120 turkey played better. you cant dissagree

It was only in first period of extra time that Turkey actually had more of the ball.

why even argue? its who puts the ball past the opponents goal more and THATS IT. it does not matter if one team had 10000 chances and the other 1. turkey won so turkey won and THAT is the reality of this sport. if you dont like it dont watch it.

Yes I can, Turkey tried to put pressure in the extra time period only but they couldn't create a single chance except for the goal.

Just take a look at the statistics:

Croatia - Turkey
shots on target : 9 - 3
shots off target : 11 - 6
possession (%) : 51 - 49
corner kicks : 7 - 4
offsides : 5 - 1
fouls : 20 - 23
yellow cards : 0 - 4
red cards : 0 - 0

Anyways I'm happy for you as you've supported Turkey from the beginning and I'm sure you're very happy now.

absolutely. they would be deserved winners because by history we can conclude that all of the things you mentioned are perfectly part of the game and happen once every couple of games. i used to be like you, get pissed when the "undeserving" team wins. but then i found out that winning and the way you play are 2 different planets even though sometimes playing good will be rewarded with a "deserved" win.

Can't say I disagree with the fact that its part of the game but I don't agree with that the winning team always deserved the win.

Well discussion forums are to discuss these things otherwise you would only get posts like "Well deserved".

Calm down sunshine. Only stating that Turkey grinded out their win with nothing more than pure heart and guts rather than skill and tactics. I saw almost the entire game, but Croatia couldnt finish and they paid for it.

btw the referee were rasist. no freaking yellow cards to the croats when they did even worse tackels.

well if you think about it the team with more goals scored wins. it really does not matter how they play. so on what basis is a win called "deserved" or "undeserved?" i assume you are thinking, well the team that plays better, has more chances, etc... but that ties into the first thing i said, it does not matter how you play just matters if you win.

I fully agree.

Turkey deserved to win because their finishing percentage was higher than the Croats. For the people that say that Turkey got outplayed, think about this. Finishing is a part of the gameplay, and arguably one of the most important parts. If the Turks were more successful at such an important part of the game, then they werent outplayed. The winning team ALWAYS deserves to win, unless the ref. gets unfairly involved.
