Heartbreak Kids

Wow, what a finish!!!! I just watched the Croatia Vs. Turkey Quarterfinal match for the Euro Cup 2008. WOW! It was 0-0 into the second overtime period. Croatia scored late in the period which looked like it would certainly clinch the game. But Turkey was not to be denied, as they have been the comeback kids all tournament, Turkey scored the equalizer goal in stoppage time at the very end of the second overtime to throw the game into Penalty Kicks. UNBELIEVABLE!!! Well, if that wasn't unbelievable enough, Croatia missed 3 of 4 Penalty Kicks, and Turkey made all of their first 3 Penalty kicks to win the match. I know the whole country of Croatia must simply be heartbroken and at the other side of the pendulum, all of Turkey must certainly be partying like its 1999! Congrats Turkey! You get to face Germany in the Semi's. Yikes!
