Our Team cost half a Billion the other Teams combined dont reach that amount
But in Turkiye we say the Ball is round Everything Can Happen
❤️🕋🇹🇷🇵🇸🇹🇷❤️
Turkiye are favorites in that group.. dangerous team offensively
you seem to have missed arda guler, wth
iste bu yuzden dunya kupasina katilmamizi cok ama cok istedim… tum dunya isimleri soylerken kriz gecirecek, tum dunya TURKIYE demesini ogrenecekk… ne guzel… gurur patlamasi yasiyorum
If you have any doubts on them watch the highlights against Spain in the second game in Spain. Almost beat them in their homes which i believe they did not lose any games in last 50 or so years in their homes. Their problem is lack of consistency. Their games are never boring
Türkiye will make it to quarterfinals. Will get eliminated to Netherlands. Unfortunate but reality. ❤🤍
Let's go Türkiye
ben bir Türk olarak Kupayı almayı en çok geçtiğimiz günlerde vefat eden saygıdeğer ve Türk futboluna çok büyük değerler katmış olan Lucescu için almayı ve kupa ile beraber onun büyük bir resmini paylaşmayı yürekten arzuluyorum ona vefamızı ve sevgimizi bu şekilde gösterip borcumuzu belki ödeyebiliriz
Türkiye was always a strange team to play against. They are very good when they are on pressure and the underdog, but can lose against a team who is less favorite. In this group everyone can be the winner.
thx for turkiye not turkey 🙂
Türkiye is 100% the favorite with Paraguay being 2nd. USA will only advance out group because of 3rd place team. I could see the USA also not scoring a goal and being grouped. It’s not like that unfortunately matters much to the players or the general US population.
Turkeys problem is their forward line. They have great great wingers and midfielders but no experienced forward.
Montella has gotten them far with 3 wingers in the forward line without a forward but would that be enough in the WC finals. Cagliari's Kilicsoy and Porto FC's Daniel Gul are the only true forwards they have and they have not played a single 90 min game all together.
Even without true forwards they managed to create goals but for how long?
Thank you cbs sports 🇹🇷
9 points for turkey
Italyanlar bizi tutacak dünya kupasında. Inanılır gibi değil. ❤
İt's obvious that it's an intresting group overall. But the adrenaline level and motivation will be totally different during group stages as there won't be a rematch.
İ believe that my country Türkiye will do well and play well. Let's wait and see.
It will be fun for sure! Come on turkiye
Short answer: Yes
If you know football, you know anything can happen. It is a sport of passion so it can go great for any team or utter failure.
Brazil team vs Germany still great example. Dont count your eggs before they hatch.
turkiye is favorite offcoure,but this is foatball always open to suprises
where is ARDA Guler
turkiye is very exciting this wc will be nice.
Turkey is better than the US on paper. However anything can happen in 90 minutes.
Paraguay is a tough team, australia also and are clinical, usa is in question, but theyre at home. Tough group to predict
Loves from Türkiye 🇹🇷
I am italian and turkish soccer player are insane BALLER!!!! 🥵😱
Turkiye is such a team that they could sweep the group with 3/3 or finish it with 1 point and no one would be surprised. Completely dependent on the vibes at that moment.
