Having lost all 5 matches it played in UEFA Nations League A, the Turkish National Football Team still has a chance of staying in the league before its final matches. The crescent-starred team, which is in last place in the group with no points, will determine its fate with the result it gets away to France. For Turkey to stay in League A, the results in other groups are also of great importance.
The Turkish National Football Team could not get the results it wanted in UEFA Nations League A Group 1. The crescent-star team, which lost all of its first 5 matches, has not yet earned any points.
Turkey 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.
In the group, Italy and France are in the top two places with 10 points each, while Belgium has 9 points. Turkey, meanwhile, is in last place with no points.
THE CHANCE OF REMAINING IN LEAGUE A CONTINUES
Although the Turkish National Team has not earned any points in 5 matches, its chance of staying in UEFA Nations League A continues mathematically. According to the tournament's format, of the teams in last place in the four groups in League A, the two teams with the worst situation in terms of points and goal difference will be relegated directly to League B.
The other two teams will play a play-off against teams coming from League B. Therefore, as well as Turkey's result against France, the matches in the other groups will also be decisive.
EYES ON RESULTS IN OTHER GROUPS
Before the final matches, Turkey is in last place in Group 1 with a -10 goal difference. In the other groups, Serbia is without points with a -7 goal difference, and Czechia is without points with a -10 goal difference. Norway, in last place in the fourth group, has 3 points.
The point or points the crescent-star team gets against France will play a critical role in its struggle to avoid the danger of direct relegation. Turkey's point and goal difference compared with the other teams will become clear after the final matches.
