Turkey Beats Northern Ireland 2-0, in the second Friendly match.

First, good news to the Turkish National player, SELCUK INAN, because of my web site and this Turkish football blog, American female by the name Janet Bedin, contacted me,through mail. I than, Twit the news, on the Twitter and Facebook.

And I asked my Turkish Journalist friend in Turkey,Cuneyt Karakaya,who has a web site called www.Ataryemez.com ,to help me out on this. and in the mean time, I contacted the Turkish football Federation press officer, Turker Tozar, through the e-mail.

Make the story short , Selcuk Inan's passport and his valet has returned to him.

The lady who found his articles, will attend the USA v Turkey send-off match being good sport.........

Now, the match, between Turkey and N. Ireland.....

It was all Turkey in the first half of the match but there was no score on the board for Turkey.

Tuncay Sanli wasted a couple good opportunity in the first half....

In the second half, story was different though.....
with new players sub in the second half made a difference on top for Turkey...

Early in the second half,Sercan Yildirim scored in the 48th minute and Semih Senturk added a goal in the 71st minute as Turkey rolled to a 2-0 victory in a friendly match before only 3,021 fans!

Sercan Yildrim took a pass from Selcuk Inan, (the player who received the good news about his passport before the match) on the left and beat goal keeper near the right post. Later, Semih Sentruk controlled a loose ball about 25 yards out and beat N. Ireland keeper.


I have wrote this before,,,,,,
This Tournament will be roller coaster for Turkish National team...

High.....Low....and High!

The mood will be really high when they get on the pitch on Saturday in Philadelphia!

Because,The Lincoln Financial Stadium is very nice and one of the best stadiums in the United States and there will be almost full house around 70 thousand soccer fans in the stadium.
