Tonight, the underdogs Turkey take in the mighty German behemoth in the first semi-final of Euro 2008. OK, a bit over dramatic, I think, but according to most pundits it looks as though the odds are in favour of a German victory.
Even the Portuguese, despite Germany beating Portugal in the quarter final, seem to be rooting for the Germans, so it'll be interesting to see the half-time reports on the news this evening. Will there be the thousands of people in the squares in Porto and Lisbon waving their German flags and cheering on the national team, or will it be a quiet Wednesday evening?
Personally, being English, I root for the underdog, so come on plucky Turkey, give 'em what for - as The Sun would say (if they weren't backing Germany also...) En buyuk, Turkiye, as they say: Turkey, the greatest.
