Turkey relish underdog tag

Semih Senturk has warned Wednesday's semi-final opponents Germany that Turkey are once again relishing the prospect of being underdogs.
Fatih Terim's side were surprise conquerors of Croatia in the quarter-finals after Semih's last-gasp extra-time equaliser took a dramatic game into a penalty shoot-out.
"Everybody thinks Germany are favourites against us but it is only motivating us even more," said the two-goal Fenerbahce striker.
"We will be confident in ourselves against Germany. We know what we have achieved and we are proud of it.
"I think Germany will have some fear playing against us because it is a one-off match and the loser will be going home."
