A reminder of how both teams made it to this point. Truth be told, more often than not, group matches aren’t really worth reliving. These two were great fun, though.
The winner of this tie will play the Netherlands in a Berlin quarter-final on Saturday evening. Austria wouldn’t mind meeting the Dutch again so soon after last week’s 3-2 win; Ronald Koeman’s side would relish the chance to immediately right some wrongs. Exactly what to expect should Türkiye get through requires another level of imagination altogether: Türkiye and the Netherlands met twice in World Cup qualifying in 2021, the former winning 4-2 at home, the latter winning the reverse fixture 6-1. Good luck calling that, if we have to. Whoever goes through tonight, it could set up a doozy.
