NETHERLANDS HIT BACK TO REACH SEMI-FINALS
Netherlands set up a Euro 2024 semi-final clash with England after mounting a rousing second-half comeback to end Turkey's hopes with a 2-1 quarter-final victory in Berlin.
A shock looked on the cards when Samet Akaydin rose to nod home the opener for an energised Turkey side on 35 minutes from Arda Guler's pinpoint cross. Full report:

THERE GOES THE FINAL WHISTLE!
A red card for one of the Turkish technical staff on the touchline. Or is it sub player Bertug Yildirim? No matter. The final whistle sounds. And the Dutch have booked their semi-final date with England in the last four in Dortmund on Wednesday night.
90+3'
DUTCH ALMOST OVER THE LINE
Hakan Çalhanoglu with a shot at goal for Turkey, but that is brilliant defending by Dumfries to make the block.

HUGE SAVE FROM THE DUTCH KEEPER
Five added minutes. Bart Verbruggen with an incredible stop for the Dutch to keep his side ahead in this match. Came off Semih Kiliçsoy in a packed box and Turkey can't believe it stayed out.

TWO GREAT CHANCES FOR TURKEY
Zeki Çelik sees a finish knocked off the line by Micky van de Ven before De Vrij is across to block the finish by Kerem Aktürkoglu. How did that not end up in the net? So, so close to 2-2.

DUTCH SIDE ARE TRANSFORMED
They looked more than a tad hot and bothered for much of the first half, but the second half is always the key in football and the superior quality of Koeman's side has taken effect at the right time.

ENGLAND V NETHERLANDS IN DORTMUND?
A classic European Championship occasion. Remember 1988 in Germany? England will. 3-1 to the Netherlands that day with Van Basten on the rampage. But Turkey aren't finished yet.

GOAL! TURKEY 1-2 NETHERLANDS (GAKPO)
And there is the second goal for the Dutch. What a change in this quarter-final as Gakpo arrives at the back post to race ahead of Muldur to clip home the finish. Dumfries with cross to back post.

KEY GOALS CHANGE GAMES
And how important will that finish be in changing the mood and momentum of this match. Turkey have worked so hard, but a one-goal lead is far from a done deal. And this match is a live issue.

GOAL! TURKEY 1-1 NETHERLANDS (DE VRIJ)
Brilliant goal from the Netherlands as Stefan de Vrij rises unmarked to power a header into the net from 12 yards. Super ball from Depay. Poor marking, but it is all level at 1-1.

ARE TURKEY ON COURSE TO FACE ENGLAND?
Looks like that is the direction of travel in Berlin unless the Dutch can find some inspiration.

NETHERLANDS ALMOST SHIP A SECOND GOAL
Verbruggen with a solid stop to half the shot by Muldur before Weghorst somehow sticks out a leg to deny Ayhan a certain second goal on the rebound with a tap-in. So close for Turkey. One more goal surely finishes this contest.

FRANTIC DUTCH ATTACK
Much, much better as Depay thumps a shot at goal that deflects off a white shirt before Günok collects a cross. Yilmaz then wins a free-kick at the other end as Van Dijk is booked for a late shoulder charge.
62'
NETHERLANDS SEEING PLENTY OF THE BALL
But doing very little with it. All a bit languid and predictable when the Dutch are in possession. Turkey very, very comfortable in sitting deep in their own half.

BIT OF A DELAY IN THE MATCH
Tijjani Reijnders is struggling after a collision, a boot to the head and needs a spot of treatment before we can continue.
