Ready for the quarter-finals? Turkey are the last team to book a ticket for the Euro 2024 final eight.Merih Demiral blasted the Turks off to the next round thanks to a brace that knocked Austria out 2-1 with goals in the 2nd and 59th minutes.Austria narrowed the gap with Michael Gregoritsch in the 66th but ultimately failed to find the leveller despite increasing the pressure in the final minutes, as Turkey's goalkeeper Mert Günok made a miracle to save a powerful Austrian header from close range in stoppage time.Turkey will face the Netherlands in the next round.The quarter-finals will take place next Friday (Spain vs Germany, France vs Portugal) and Saturday (Netherlands vs Turkey, Switzerland vs England).

Here's what the table looks like.The Turkey-Austria tie got off to a ferocious start. Both teams had chances inside the first 30 seconds and Demiral scored inside the first minute after the Austrian defence failed to deal with a corner.Baumgartner’s attempted clearance rebounded back off teammate Stefan Posch to goalkeeper Patrick Pentz, who scooped it off the line only for Demiral to pounce on the rebound and score.UEFA clocked the goal at 57 seconds, making it the second-fastest ever at the Euros after Albania's one against Italy.Austria almost responded but Demiral somehow did enough to keep Baumgartner from scoring on the line.The Austrians pushed hard for an equaliser but the Turkish players matched their intensity and were close to scoring more, as Turkey star Arda Guler tried his luck from the distance and Demiral went close from the corner.Austria's boss Ralf Rangnick responded at the break by sending on forward Michael Gregoritsch to partner Marko Arnautovic, who was then denied in a one-on-one by Gunok.A
