BERLIN: Members of Berlin’s large Turkish community have vowed to paint the town red when their team comes to the German capital to play the Netherlands in Euro 2024 on Saturday.
“The atmosphere will be like a home game for us,” said Muhammet Ali Sevilmis, 36, who runs a phone repair shop in Berlin’s Kreuzberg district.
There will be “mainly Turks in the stadium,” predicted Sevilmis, who himself forked out 500 euros ($540) for a ticket after Turkiye’s victory over Austria to reach the quarter-finals.
