TURKEY: UNDERDOGS: A PICSPAM

I haven't yet done a picspam on the Turkish National Team. So let me do one of their run so far in the Euros. Nobody expected them to get this far in the tournament, so what they've accomplished is quite impressive. I was rather upset when they beat Croatia because I'm a big fan of the Croatian team. But the Turkish team should be proud of themselves. It's interesting that 9 of their players are injured or suspended and that they may have to use their 3rd-string GK in the midfield. Today's game should be fascinating.

On a side note, I was so happy to discover that Roberto Rossetti will be refereeing the finals. I love Roberto Rossetti.♥
