Forgot to write about the croatia.
They played a good game(maybe a little worse than what they played in the group), but still were slightly better than Turkay througout the game(the bar).
But it's the part of the game, someone has to loose, and it was a very close tie with Turkey, who is also a decent team, amazingly determined(they scored in 93rd minute with Swiss, then scored 3 goles in 15 minutes with Czech, and now this).
Croatia can't be very down. Thye played to win, and they had their chances, they didn't choke, but were a little unfortunate. I think they could reach semis, but it would be very hard to go to the final I think.
Turkey on the other hand showed amazing determination from the first minute of extra time. They literaly have eaten the grass, they were running with all they had left, and they looked a lot more than the Croats, the side, that wants to progress. And this amazing comeback.
I mean you concede in 2 minutes from the end of the extra time, and you still are trying to win with everything you got. Most of the teams would probably just lay down in that moment and start crying. The pens were just formality. Turkey was stuned(in a good way) by the come-back, and Croatia was almost devastated.
So congrats to the Croatia for showing a good football in those championship, but someone has to loose, and Croatia can be proud with the way they've lost it(I mean this in a good way, like Jose said recently).
But no matter who would progress, I think Germany is already one foot in the final.
