Match overview
Portugal took full advantage of Alpay’s early dismissal. Figo and Rui Costa orchestrated wave after wave of attacks, and Nuno Gomes’ header on the stroke of half-time broke Turkish resistance before his tap-in soon after ensured a comfortable passage to the last four.
Trivia
Nuno Gomes became the first Portuguese player to score in three successive Euro finals matches, prompting Benfica to sell-out his replica shirt within 24 hours.
