Turkey struggled at times against Belgium in Tuesday's Euro 2012 qualifier, but they eventually recorded a 3-2 home win courtesy of a late Arda Turan strike. Head coach Guus Hiddink was absolutely delighted with his side's second consecutive win of the qualification campaign.
"I wanted my team to play positively, and keep looking for scoring opportunities. Even though we went behind, our way of playing paid off in the end," Hiddink was quoted as saying on the official UEFA website.
"Looking back at the first two qualifying games, I can only rejoice. Our ambition was to get the maximum out of these two games.
"Achieving that goal makes it easier for us to prepare for the next fixtures. I'm looking forward to meeting Germany in Berlin in a few weeks."
Turkey sit joint first in the table with Germany, as both sides have collected six points from two games.
