Nihat Kahveci scored two late goals to complete a pulsating Turkey comeback against the Czech Republic and secure his side a Euro 2008 last eight spot. Jan Koller steered in a header to put the Czechs ahead before Jaroslav Plasil slid in to add a second. Arda Turan slotted in for Turkey to set up a tense finale and Nihat equalised after Petr Cech dropped a cross. Nihat then crashed in a shot off the bar before Turkey keeper Volkan Demirel was red-carded for a push on Koller. Tuncay Sanli went in goal as Turkey saw the game out and completed a classic and unlikely comeback to set up a last eight tie against Croatia.
