Looks like Fatih Terim will step down as Turkey manager after that 3-2 defeat to Germany but either way he has done a fantastic job IMO motivating and leading Turkey through the qualifying campaign and into the Semi-Finals of this tournament...
I'm sure he will always be remembered by Turkish fans... Proud Terim Set to Step Down After Turkey Defeat Turkey coach Fatih Terim has revealed he will probably step down after seeing his side lose to Germany in their Euro 2008 semi-final. Philip Lahm's last-minute strike finally ended Turkey's dreams of going all way in Austria and Switzerland after thrilling semi-final clash in Basel. Turkey could count themselves unfortunate to lose to Germany after dominating for most of the game only for Lahm to break their hearts. Terim says he has decided to return to club management and that he will work outside Turkey. "Most probably after speaking to the federation president and the players I will choose to say this is what I have done," said Terim. I had declared earlier I would not be working in Turkey. I am a man who keeps my promises. So I will most probably go back to a European country." Proud Terim was proud of his players after going so close to reaching the final. "I congratulate Germany for their win and wish them success for final but I am proud of my players and think their will to play well, and the technical support, all came together and they were able to show the world what a good team they were," added Terim. "I think we are leaving as the most colorful team of the tournament. We can say we were almost there, but that is part of football as well."

Probably, he's done a good enough job to get more money.

condolences are in order...the head of the turkish f.a. died of a heart attack today at age 52.
this person was last seen on television last week celebrating (with his wife, i believe - in a headscarf) turkey's goals in the semi-final with germany. if you watched the match, you could see hasan dogan sitting next to gul. gul was next to platini and merkel was on the other side of platini. sad stuff indeed. |
