Victory by forfeit and Kosovo match

The national team won the only match in 659 matches by forfeit against Greece.

The special match between Türkiye and Greece at Başakşehir Fatih Terim Stadium on 17 November 2015 ended 0-0. Six months after this match, FIFA registered the match as 3-0 in favor of Türkiye on the grounds that Greece had played illegal players.

The special match that the crescent-star team played away against Kosovo on May 21, 2014 and won 6-1 was not taken into consideration because this country was not a member of UEFA and FIFA on that date.

1 win in last 8 matches

The crescent-star team had only 1 win in the last 8 matches.

The national team, which suffered 7 defeats in eight matches and could only beat the USA, conceded 18 goals and scored only 5 goals in this period.

The national team, which was defeated by Australia and Paraguay in the World Cup hosted by the USA, Canada and Mexico, completed the group with the victory of the USA.

In the UEFA Nations League, Türkiye lost 1-0 to France in Kocaeli, 4-1 to Italy in Bursa, 3-0 away to Belgium, 3-1 to Italy in Bologna and 2-1 to Belgium in Izmir.

Second match under the management of Sergen Yalçın

The National Football Team will play its second match against France under the management of Sergen Yalçın, who was appointed as coach instead of Italian Vincenzo Montella.

The crescent-star team, which lost its first 5 matches in the UEFA Nations League, will try to put an end to the bad trend in the second match with Sergen Yalçın.
