Match Report: -

As these two teams meet for the second time in the tournament, Brazil again, overcame turkey with another 1 goal deficit. Both goals that decided the two matches were from Ronaldo who seems to be in outstanding form. Although nothing good is said for that haircut of his.

Turkey were unlucky at times but i think that Brazil were the stronger side although it wasn't easy for them to win. It was made difficult for them by the Turks.

Turkey still have one match remaining and that is of course, the 3rd/4th playoff. Their last opponents will be one of the joint hosts and a big surprise, South Korea, I don't think many people will have predicted that for a playoff match.
