Draw for the UEFA EURO 2012 play-offs
Baku, October 13 (AZERTAC). A number of teams will be renewing ties after the draw for the UEFA EURO 2012 play-offs in Krakow, not least Turkey and Croatia who played out a memorable quarter-final in 2008.
The draw for the UEFA EURO 2012 play-offs in Krakow today produced a repeat of the epic quarter-final from 2008 when Turkey eliminated Croatia on penalties.
On 20 June 2008 in Vienna, Croatia were on the verge of a semi-final place after Ivan Klasnić struck in the 119th minute only for Semih Şentürk to score a dramatic equaliser in the dying seconds. Turkey won the shoot-out to progress to a last-four meeting against Germany which they lost 3-2.
Bosnia and Herzegovina and Portugal will also be renewing ties after the Portuguese edged a play-off between the sides for the 2010 FIFA World Cup 2-0 on aggregate. The two teams in contention with no previous play-off experience, Estonia and Montenegro, drew the Republic of Ireland and the Czech Republic respectively.
