Georgia boss Willy Sagnol, a former player for Bayern Munich, is leading his team into their first major international tournament at Euro 2024. The team will be facing Turkey in their opening Group F game in Dortmund on Tuesday at 17:00 BST. Georgia earned their spot in the tournament by defeating Greece in a penalty shootout during the play-off final.
Sagnol expressed his team’s determination and spirit, stating that Georgia will give everything they have in each match, whether against Portugal, Czech Republic, or Turkey. The team is seen as a wildcard entry in the tournament, but they are ready to compete with full commitment and dedication.
On the other hand, Turkey, led by manager Vincenzo Montella, is aiming to achieve better results than in the past two tournaments where they failed to qualify from the group stages. Montella emphasized the importance of winning matches from the start and making their fans proud by playing with passion and courage. Despite some absences due to injuries, Turkey is focused on utilizing the talent and experience within their squad.
The Turkey vs Georgia match will be broadcast live on BBC One at 17:00 BST on 18 June. Additionally, you can listen to full commentary on BBC Radio 5 Live and follow live text updates on the BBC Sport website and app. Turkey’s recent history in Euro competitions includes their elimination in the group stage of Euro 2020 after losses to Italy, Wales, and Switzerland.
