Turkey managed to advance from Group F in the 2024 European Championship by defeating the Czech Republic 2-1 in their third match, securing a spot in the round of 16. Following the match, Czech player Thomas Chory, who was responsible for the tension on the field, made inappropriate comments to the country's media. "I WANTED TO POISON THEM"Chory, the person who ignited the incident after the Czech Republic-Turkey match, spoke to the Czech media. The 29-year-old player, who had a confrontation with Ferdi Kadıoğlu and Orkun Kökçü and received a red card, explained the reason for entering the field with the words "I wanted to add some aggression to the game, to poison them. I knew they wouldn't like it." WHAT HAPPENED?The tension reached its peak after the final whistle of the 90-minute match. Czech player Thomas Chory, who couldn't accept the defeat, went crazy. Chory first approached Ferdi Kadıoğlu, but assistant coach Selçuk Şahin intervened. During this time, our young star Arda Güler, who pushed Chory, received a yellow card. The Czech player then attacked Orkun and was directly sent off with a red card. Czech captain Tomas Soucek, another player who displayed unsportsmanlike behavior on the field, received a yellow card.
