The final whistle is blown and Germany wins the Euro 2008 soccer match against Turkey this securing at least the title of being the second best soccer team of Europe.
Philipp Lahmp's last strike is worth of winning any match. Turkey started the match impressive, but Germany ended it astonishingly beautifully.
The final score was 3-2 and while Turkey has the bronze title of Euro 2008, Germany waits the winner of the Russia Spain (tomorrow) in the Final Game in Vienna that will decide who will be the winner of Euro 2008 UEFA Cup.
"A 90th-minute strike from Philipp Lahm sent Germany into the UEFA EURO 2008™ final and ended the march of a brave Turkey side who were unable to summon one last dramatic equaliser," reports UEFA.
"Full-back Sabri's right-wing surge went unrewarded, then Uğur warmed Lehmann's hands as Turkey continued to get their quota of attacks through clever use of the flanks. However, it was a long cross from a deeper position, delivered by Lahm, which looked to have decided the match, goalkeeper Rüştü Reçber failing to reach a ball that Klose headed into the unguarded net with eleven minutes to play. Turkey had redefined the term plucky underdog with last-gasp goals against Switzerland, Czech Republic and Turkey and came again. Sabri was the source, his cross being turned in at the near post by Semih. Extra time loomed, but that was discounting the one-two between Hitzlsperger and Lahm that provided the knockout punch."
