Full-time: Netherlands 2-1 Turkey
After a manic 20 minutes or so, Netherlands are able to hold on to ensure a place in semifinals with a 2-1 result in Berlin.
Spare a thought for Turkey, who were quite impressive for large swaths of the match.
There is even a red card for someone from the Turkish bench after protesting a late foul.
This game really had it all, and will surely go down as one of the games of the tournament.

A late Turkey free kick almost results in a goal after Akturkoglu heads wide after a kick-on from the middle.
Another chance is created soon after, with the Dutch shot-stopper doing well to block the chance from Tosun from near range.
This has been a scintillating finish to this contest.
We will also have five additional minutes of added time.

Turkey 10 minutes away from elimination
The Turkish contingent look on tensely.
Their hopes have been quashed with the events which have transpired in the last 10 minutes.
Still, there is still plenty of time for a late equaliser, so the Dutch will not want to lose any focus.
Meanwhile, it looks like Akaydin, who scored the first goal, will be stretchered off after picking up a niggle.

GOAL! Muldur scores. Netherlands 2-1 Turkey
Dumfries sends in a ground pass from the right side, with a few Dutch attackers licking their chops.
It is Gakpo by the far post who is able to get on a boot on it, and despite falling over, sends the ball to the left of Gunok and into the net.
Replays confirm it was actually an own goal of Muldur, and not Gakpo.
The Dutch have scored two goals in seven minutes to completely flip the script here in Berlin.
