In the Croatian team, Dario Knezevic and
Igor Budan are both out of the Euro 2008 Tournament with knee
injuries, but Darijo Srna and Ivan Rakitic claim they are fit
for play on Friday and will likely make the squad. "This
could be my last match for Croatia, but let's hope it isn't as I
have a feeling we can do much more here than just the
quarter-finals," Croatia's captain, Niko Kovac, 36, said,
announcing he will retire after the Euro 2008. Meanwhile at the
Turkish squad, the goalkeeper and captain Volkan Demirel is
suspended, after the red card during the game against Czech
Republic and Rustu Recber will be his replacement against
Croatia. Mehmet Aurelio is also banned, while defender Servet
Cetin is nursing a knee injury. Emre Gungor and Gokhan Zan
also remain doubtful for the Euro 2008 quarter-final. "We have
15 footballers, two goalkeepers and we can make three
substitutions. That is what we have," Turkey coach Fatih Terim
was quoted.
The second Euro 2008 quarter-final match
Croatia v Turkey will start on Friday, June 20th at 18:45 local
time (19:45BST) from Ernst Happel Stadion, Vienna.
