You think they watch this on German TV?
Not when they canât
Seriously have you ever met a Turkish person in Germany or been in their homes?
Yeah, some of my best friends have a Turkish background, and how do you know I didnât mean the large number of Austrians here?
Games involving Portugal, Slovenia, England etc were on ARD/ZDF, but not this match?
On Fox, after going back their studio to ask their experts about that save, Schmeichel about to comment only for LalasâŚ
Because Magenta TV bought the rights before the tournament.
If Germans wanted to watch Turks plays football they could watch the Germany team.
AmIrite?
And Lalas follows with an insightful and original comparison of the match to two heavyweights throwing punches.
Thatâs a great comparison. I bet it becomes popular.
What else do you want??
This was one of my favourite game ever.
Pure mayhem. I was kind of drunk watching it and with as absurd as I saw the game becoming I found myself questioning if I had got a lot more drunk than I realized. It lost it at seeing the image of red carded Barca team mates sent off to watch the rest of the game sitting next to each on the naughty step.
This is what I predict for the Turkey-Netherlands QF
@Bekloppt TĂźrkei - Ăsterreich: Warum das Spiel nicht im Free-TV läuft - ZDFheute
"Der Hintergrund: MagentaTV darf ein Achtelfinale bei der EM exklusiv zeigen. Das ZDF hat sich nicht gegen die Ăbertragung Ăsterreich - TĂźrkei entschieden, sondern im ersten Schritt fĂźr das Spiel Deutschland - Dänemark.
AnschlieĂend konnten die anderen Medienpartner ihre Auswahl treffen. Von vornherein war klar, dass ein Achtelfinale exklusiv bei Magenta zu sehen sein wird. Nun wurde es im Auswahlverfahren das Spiel Ăsterreich - TĂźrkei."

The population of England is 56 million. The population of the four nations England have played is 20 million combined.
@Iftikhar has been sleeping a long time. Someone needs to check on him.
The game was really enjoyable, and Iâm pissed that I couldnât stay awake till 3 AM.
Magenta verkauft auch ein tĂźrkisches TV-Paket. Das Spiel ist fĂźr sie eine gute Werbung.
Definitely a smart move by Magenta to not allow this to be on Free TV. We have 2,85 million people with a Turkish background in Germany. Wonder how many new subscribers to have since yesterday.
âYeah, but itâs only 2 million without the illegal immigrants.â - Daily Mail
Apologies
I was being ironicâŚ
