Turkey 3 - Czech Republic 2

It's too bad soccer ("football" to most of the world) isn't more popular in the US, cuz there was a GREAT game today (shown on ESPN2) between Turkey and the Czech Republic in the European Championship ("Euro 2008"). After 75 minutes in a win-or-go-home game, the Turks found themselves outplayed, and losing 0-2. In the final 15 minutes, they scored 3 goals to advance to the knock-out round to play Croatia.

If you were cheering for Turkey (and I was), this was an unbelievable comeback. Congratulations to Turkey, and good luck against Croatia, who is looking more-and-more like a championship-caliber team.
