    Volkan Demirel

    He made some good saves when tested though many were routine that you would expect him to keep out.

  • İsmail Köybaşı

    İsmail Köybaşı

    Solid performance from the full back, Chu-young Park was only noticeable for a brief period in the first half.

  • Serdar Kesimal

    Serdar Kesimal

    Had a hand in a number of key tackles and provided plenty of protection against a poor Korean front line.

  • Servet Çetin

    Servet Çetin

    Made some timely blocks and handled Dong-Won Ji with ease in the first half. Should have had a goal but his shot was blocked.

  • Serkan Balcı

    3.00

    Serkan Balcı

    Taken off at half time after being tested a little in the first half, but was the weak link Korea tried to expose during a brief spell of pressure.

  • Mehmet Ekici

    Mehmet Ekici

    Made some exciting runs but his finishes were lacking.

  • Selçuk İnan

    3.50

    Selçuk İnan

    Extremely dominant in the middle of the park and never allowed Korea any time on the ball especially in the first half, then worked doubly hard when Emre was sent off.

  • Hamit Altintop

    3.50

    Hamit Altintop Top of the Match

    Caused absolute chaos in the opening 45 minutes. His vision and creativity was plain to see but he almost directed the ball into his own net that would have been a tad embarrassing.

  • Emre Belözoğlu

    2.00

    Emre Belözoğlu Flop of the Match

    Such an influential player has always been prone to such bouts of idiocy. Sent off for two yellows in a minute, after he reacted to a Ja Cheol Koo challenge. To their credit Turkey dominated without him.

  • Sabri Sarıoğlu
    2

    2.50

    Sabri Sarıoğlu

    Played reasonably well on the right side and managed to put in some telling crosses. Though he should have waltzed past Lee Jung-Soo more often than he did.

  • Umut Bulut

    2.50

    Umut Bulut

    Missed a number of chances he really should have put away.

Substitutions

  • Gökhan Gönül

    5
    3.00

    Gökhan Gönül

    Offered an extra attacking presence on the right after his introduction and shored up the back line as well.

  • Kazım Kazım
    2
    5
    3.00

    Kazım Kazım

    Exciting when he came on and really should have scored from a close range header, but instead forced a great save from Korea's goalkeeper.

  • Burak Yılmaz
    2
    3
    3.00

    Burak Yılmaz

    Allowed Korea into the game a little in the second half with some slack passing.

  • Tunay Torun
    2

    0.00

    Tunay Torun

    The poor finishing continued with Torun, plus he made little headway against a defence that had plenty of weaknesses.

  • Yiğit İncedemir

  • Sung-Ryong Jung

    3.50

    Sung-Ryong Jung

    Made a series of excellent stops and really kept his team in the match.

  • Dong-Won Ji

    2.50

    Dong-Won Ji

    Poor distribution and rarely held onto the ball as he was well ushered by the Turkish side. Taken off late in the second half.

  • Jae-Won Hwang
    3
    1
    2.50

    Jae-Won Hwang

    Was caught out a few times and was sucked into the middle, thus leaving space on the outside which Emre exploited.

  • Jeong Ho Hong

    3.00

    Jeong Ho Hong

    A little static in the centre of defence.

  • Yong-Rae  Lee
    4
    1
    2.50

    Yong-Rae Lee

    Allowed breathing space by Incedemir after the man he replaced Sarioglu took him too the cleaners on more than one occasion.

  • C. Y. Park
    8
    1
    3.00

    C. Y. Park

    Had a tough match on the right side against Emre, and it got even more difficult when Koybasi moved further forward.

  • Chul Hong
    4
    1
    3.00

    Chul Hong

    The movement of Turkey's front players really caught him out. But made some key stops.

  • Koo Ja-Cheol
    5

    2.50

    Koo Ja-Cheol

    Did reasonably well in the second half but was torn to pieces by Altintop. Also had a slight hand in Emre's dismissal.

  • Jung-Soo Lee
    5
    1
    3.00

    Jung-Soo Lee

    Taken off with four minutes left. Ran himself into the ground but it was only in the second period he managed to get a hold on the match.

  • Sung-Yong Ki

    Sung-Yong Ki

    Barely made any headway in the first half, though a few decent runs caused problems.

    Bo-Kyung Kim

    Was a little more lively than the man he replaced but both Turkey centre backs had the measure of him.
