I did, but not as clearly as I thought. I forgot Beckham's penalty miss, and that both of France's goals had been scored after the 90 minute mark. Same thing with Spain, that both were scored in added time, and that they hadn't taken the lead at any point in the game.

Which one is the greatest? Beats me.

I remember my boss (a transplanted Brit in NY) absolutely shellshocked after following that game online. He was at a loss for words.

What makes you so sure?

Obviously we were getting trashed by the Czech until the 80th minute...

The ball is round and there is 90 minutes in a game... just remember

Just look at the statistics of the Czech vs Turkey game...

Goals Scored: Turkey (3), Czech (2)
Shots on Goal: Turkey (8), Czech (5)
Shots wide: Turkey (7), Czech (8)
Ball Poss%: Turkey (57%), Czech (43%)

So it's obvious Turkey was the better team.

and here are past games Croatia vs Turkey

Croatia 2 - Turkey 2 (Friendly Game 2004)
Croatia 1 - Turkey 1 (Some Cup Game 1997)
Croatia 1 - Turkey 0 (Euro 96)

So, its going to be a close game... The only reason Turkey is going to struggle and might loose is because due to injured starting players and suspensions...
