TUR vs POR Match Preview
Turkey and Portugal both started Euro 2024 with one victory. While Turkey beat Euro debutant Georgia by 3-1, Portugal beat Czechia by 2-1.
After Mert Muldur scored the first goal for Turkey against Georgia in the 25th minute, the score was leveled seven minutes later. In the second half, 19-year-old Euro debutant Arda Guler scored a stunner to make the scoreline 2-1 for Turkey, while Kerem Akturkoglu scored the assurance goal for Turkey in late stoppage time. They were more controlled in the second half, while the coach, Vincenzo Montella, believes that they need to be more accurate in their chances.
Although Portugal dominated against the defensive side Czechia in their tournament opener, they had hard luck on the scoreboard. After conceding a goal in the 62nd minute, Portugal leveled the scoreline seven minutes later with an own goal. In stoppage time, late substitute Francisco Conceição’s first international goal brought a smile to Cristiano Ronaldo and his boys.
