Acceptance of F. mysteriously hinted at problems in the Turkish national team

European Championship is not going the way Turkey's team would like.

The team coached by Fatih Terim lost to both Croats and Spaniards and now only a victory against the Czechs would keep their chances alive to reach the quarterfinals.

During the press conference, the strategist tried to find reasons for the failure.

"We had many unexpected problems in the preparation camp. However, the players are 'growing' every day, gaining experience, and I am trying to help them mature.

I have chosen these footballers and take full responsibility. Now I am trying to focus on the upcoming matches and later it will be time to answer your questions.

Before the tournament, we had high ambitions, but they were not fulfilled.

I heard critics saying that Hakan Calhanoglu is not playing in his position. I have been a coach for 45-46 years and I know that some people do not like me. However, I achieved all of Turkey's major victories.

Now my players are completely focused because we will have one last chance. Maybe we will succeed, maybe not. But we must improve and continue to develop our game," Terim said.
