Germany cautious before Turkey match

June 24, 2008

Germany warn against complacency before their Euro2008 semi-final match in Basel against comeback kings Turkey. The Turks' never-say-die attitude has brought some thrilling finishes to their matches, even though their squad has been plagued by injury and suspensions. Preparations are also underway in the German capital, where a fan mile next to the Brandenburg Gate is being reopened in time for the semi-final. Organisers hope up to a half a million fans will gather there to watch the match live on the big screen.
