Berlin: The Netherlands struck two second-half goals in seven minutes to come from behind to beat Turkiye 2-1 on Saturday and set up a Euro 2024 semi-final clash with England.
Samet Akaydin sent Turkiye ahead in the first half but Stefan de Vrij headed the Netherlands level and Murt Muldur turned into his own net under pressure from Cody Gakpo after 76 minutes to hand the Dutch victory.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan attended the match at the Olympiastadion.
Netherlands overcame the pressure from the stands and Turkiye's energetic style, as well as a flurry of late chances, to reach the Euros semi-finals for the first time since 2004.
