Semih motivated by underdogs tag

Turkey forward Semih Senturk is happy for everyone to continue to write his side off as they look to make it through to a European Championship final for the first time.

Turkey are already in uncharted waters having never before progressed beyond the quarter-finals of this competition, and for most they will be major underdogs for their semi-final against European heavyweights Germany in Basle.

However, that outsiders tag fits just fine for Semih, who said: "Everybody thinks Germany are favourites against us. But it is only motivating us even more."
