Turkey beat Austria 2-1 in a thrilling last-16 encounter to advance to a Euro 2024 quarter-final against the Netherlands.

Merih Demiral opened the scoring after less than a minute and netted again in the second half. Michael Gregoritsch was left free at the back post for Austria’s response after another corner in the 66th but neither team could add any more despite a flurry of chances in the rain.

It is the first time Turkey have reached the last eight of the competition since 2008.
