Turkey never gives up. They just don't know defeat.

Even with seconds left of extra time and life draining away after Ivan Klasnic's header for Croatia, Fatih Terim's brave side kept going, equalizing through Semih Senturk, dominating the shoot-out, and reaching what will be a highly charged semi-final with Germany.

Croatia:1-Stipe Pletikosa; 5-Vedran Corluka, 3-Josip Simunic, 4-Robert Kovac, 22-Danijel Pranjic; 11-Darijo Srna, 10-Niko Kovac, 14-Luka Modric, 7-Ivan Rakitic; 19-Niko Kranjcar, 18-Ivica Olic

Turkey:1-Rustu Recber; 22-Hamit Altintop, 15-Emre Asik, 4-Gokhan Zan, 3-Hakan Balta; 20-Sabri Sarioglu, 17-Tuncay Sanli, 6-Mehmet Topal, 14-Arda Turan; 18-Kazim Kazim, 8-Nihat Kahveci

Referee:Roberto Rosetti
