Turkey has perfected the great escape.

What can I say because this FOOTBALL and that’s one of the reasons why they call this game is The Most Beautiful Game in the World. It’s a worth when you stayed-up till the wee hour in the morning just to watch a game with a dramatic finished like this.

The Turks taught the European Championship another lesson in fortitude Friday night to advance to next stage

When Ivan Klasnić headed in Luka Modrić’s cross with a minute of the overtime period to play, Croatia looked to have booked their place in Wednesday’s semi-final. (and I can see Bilic celebrated like he just won 4-D after betting 1000 Big and 1000 Small). However, for the third game running, Turkey sensationally hit back at the death to force the first shoot-out of these finals when Semih Şentürk drove in, with the aid of a deflection, from just inside the area.

Turkey, who reached the last four of the 2002 World Cup, secured a place in the European Championship semi-finals for the first time after a dramatic penalty shoot-out win over Croatia in Vienna to set up a meeting with Germany in the Euro 2008 semi-finals

Eventhough Croatia enjoyed the better chances during normal time and should have taken the lead in the first half when Ivica Olic hit the crossbar from close range following excellent work by Modric. Towards the end of the second half, Turkey keeper Rustu produced a flying one-handed save to turn away Darijo Srna’s free-kick.

Turkey created little at the opposite end, with Mehmet Topal shaving the post with a long-range drive and Tuncay Sanli flashing a 25-yard drive narrowly wide. With a minute to go, Modric beat Rustu to a loose ball on the by-line and clipped in a cross which substitute Ivan Klasnic headed home as the Turkey keeper scrambled back.

But in stoppage-time, Rustu’s huge punt downfield fell kindly at the feet of Semih Senturk just inside the box and he smashed a fierce drive into the top corner via a slight deflection.

Tottenham-bound Modric missed the first penalty and, after Turkey converted all three of their spot-kicks, Petric’s attempt was parried away by Rustu to book a semi-final date with Germany next Wednesday.

=> The good note of this game, will be some advantages to Germany whom I think will beat The Turks and make a showdown with Italy or Dutch in Euro 2008 final. It’s not that I don’t believe in Turkey but they really – really need something special ( a big help from GOD maybe) and what had happened in Athens four years back is never gonna happen again…

 

Have you ever watch TV program called “Kids say the darndest thing”. I really love that program very much. Below are some of the examples (but this is Malaysia version)

——————————————————————————————

PART I

Cikgu Nasyor sedang mengendali kelasnya dalam aktiviti sukan di padang sekolah. Seperti biasa, Cikgu Nasyor akan menyuruh murid²nya melakukan regangan otot. Tiba di satu bahagian, dimana murid² baring dan mengangkat kaki lalu menggerakkannya seperti sedang mengayuh basikal. Cikgu Nasyor asyik memerhati seorang muridnya yang pada mulanya menggerakkan kakinya tiba² memberhentikan kakinya. Lalu Cikgu Nasyor menyergah muridnya yang bernama Mat.

Cikgu Nasyor: “Woiiii Mat, apa sebab kau berhenti ni hah”

Mat : “Oh Cikgu Nasyor, basikal saya tengah turun bukit Cikgu, sebab tu saya berhenti.Takkan nak kayuh jugak.”

 

PART II

Waktu sekolah telah tamat. Sebelum keluar kelas, Cikgu Nasyor telah bertanya kpd murid²nya.

Mat : Mak saya kata lepas habis sekolah, terus balik rumah..jangan pergi mana-mana.

Harian Metro melaporkan satu kejadian luar biasa di Kampung Bukit Besar, Kuala Terengganu. Terdapat sepohon pokok yang di panggil pokok pait telah mengeluarkan cecair seperti ‘air mata’ sejak hampir semingu yang lalu sehingga penduduk kampong berebut-rebut mengambil air daripada pokok berkenaan.

 

Pokok Pait yang berada di dalam kawasan bersebelahan dengan tanah perkuburan Masjid Bukit Besar itu disedari mengeluarkan air pada hari Sabtu yang lalu mengundang kehadiran orang ramai untuk melihat sendiri kejadian yang dianggap aneh itu.

 

Walaupun kejadian ini melontarkan pelbagai pertanyaan dan macam-macam anggapan, setiap Muslim mestilah mengambilnya sebagai bukti keagungan Allah Pencipta Alam dan jangan menjadikannya/mempercayai berlebihan sehingga memesong akidah kerana perbuatan yang demikian adalah Syirik yang kita ketahui merupakan salah satu dosa yang besar.

 

Seperti Firman Allah swt ““Dan sembahlah olehmu akan Allah, janganlah kamu mempersekutukan-Nya dengan sesuatu. Dan berbuat baiklah kepada kedua orang ibu bapa, karib kerabat, anak yatim, orang-orang miskin, tetangga yang dekat dan jauh, teman sejawat, ibnus sabil dan hamba sahayamu.” (An-Nisa’: 36)

My favourite team,Germany lived up to their billing as pre-tournament favourites as they booked a place in the Euro 2008 semi-finals with an impressive 3-2 win over Portugal. I knew the Germany will turn the table after reading their old timer ‘Kaiser’ who was criticized their display in two early group game.

Although the Germans qualified for the quarter-finals as runners-up in Group B following defeat by Croatia, the three-time winners were back to their best in Basel as they proved just too good for the Euro 2004 finalists.

Bastian Schweinsteiger opened the scoring in the 22nd minute on his return from suspension, and the Portuguese were left shell-shocked when the Bayern Munich midfielder laid on a second for Miroslav Klose just four minutes later.

Portugal gave themselves hope four minutes before the break through Nuno Gomes, who became just the third man behind Jurgen Klinsmann and Vladimir Smicer to score in three European Championships.

But Michael Ballack restored Germany’s two-goal lead in the 61st minute from another Schweinsteiger free-kick, and although substitute Helder Postiga pulled another one back for Portugal with three minutes left, Germany held on.
