Turkey vs Georgia has been the game of Euro 2024, with the maddest end to a game in the tournament so far.
Georgia penned their opposition in for the final few minutes of the game, hitting the post with a free-kick, before Turkey blocked a shot that was almost certainly going in. Georgian keeper Giorgi Mamardashvili even went up to attack… and paid for his choice.
Turkey managed to get a third, running down the other end of the pitch to score in an empty net. What a finale.

Turkey vs Georgia may not have even got off the ground either. When a cascade of water fell from the roof of Dortmund’s Signal Iduna Park prior to kick-off, there were fears that this one might have been postponed – but what unfolded was an absolute Euros classic.
Mert Muldur got the game underway with a lovely hit from outside the area, igniting a lively Turkish crowd, before a second Turkish goal was ruled out for offside. The Georgians had their glorious first strike at a major tournament, however, when Georges Mikautadze finished a great move to equalise.
You couldn't blink while watching this one.
