Euro 2000 proved more successful as Turkey advanced from the group stage with 4 points, however they were no match for Portugal in the quarter-finals.
In 2008 Turkey once again progressed to the knockouts by claiming two wins in their group, before overcoming Croatia on penalties in the quarter-finals. Ay-Yıldızlılar put up a courageous battle against Germany in the semi-finals, but Philipp Lahm netted in the closing stages to shatter the hearts of Turkey supporters.
Turkey didn't qualify for Euro 2012 and then suffered group-stage exits at the following two editions. Georgia, meanwhile, wouldn't make its debut at the European Championship finals until the 2024 tournament, beating Greece on penalties in the play-off finals.
