Turkey World Cup Information
Turkey’s World Cup history may be limited in appearances, but it includes one of the most remarkable underdog runs in the tournament’s modern era. In 2002, Turkey reached the semi-finals of the FIFA World Cup in South Korea and Japan — an extraordinary achievement for a side appearing in just their second tournament.
Guided by manager Şenol Güneş and captained by experienced midfielder Bülent Korkmaz, Turkey defeated the likes of Japan and Senegal on their way to the last four. Though they lost narrowly to Brazil in the semi-finals, they went on to win the third-place playoff against co-hosts South Korea. Hakan Şükür scored one of the fastest goals in World Cup history, finding the net just 11 seconds into that match.
Turkey’s 2002 performance stands as a defining moment in their football history. Though they have not qualified since, that team is remembered for its balance, fighting spirit, and impressive technical ability on the world’s biggest stage.
