I think it is the Korean Fan Club inviting Turkish supporters for the match. Apart from the stadium they hired a yacht, and invite Turkish people to watch the match together..

btw, it has got nothing to do with grudge or something, we like swiss as well, but we support Korea Wink

I am sorry for Polska as well, I met First Polska in Korea, strange, isn't it Smile

There are about 3 million Turkish immigrants only in Germany, we'd be the second host only if we could qualify Sad

Many of our national players are German-born, and chose Turkey to play for except for Mehmet Scholl.

Last match we played against Germany, we beat them 2-1, and both Turkish scorers were German-born, one of them is 17 years old Nuri who plays for Dordmund and currently the youngest scorer of Bundesliga.

Feel sorry for Korea but with defence players making such mistakes they wouldn't go to far in tournament anyway. Hiddink taught them how to defend "one on one" but i think they forgot about that with Advocat.

They also shouldn't complain about losing 2nd goal. Frei received pass from one of korean defenders and it wasn't an offside. Referee on the line could have distracted korean goalkeeper by raising the flag but goalkeeper should play the ball till the end of action as main referee didn't blow the whistle (he saw the situation and made good deciosion).

I really didn't like the situation almost whole Korean team started to complain. They may got used to the situation the referee is on their side after World Cup 2002 in Korea - Japan (where lots of European teams like Portugal or Spain lost with Korea mostly by wrong referee decisions).

I know this not popular what i just said but it was discussed in almost all european newspapers and TV after World Cup 2002. People still talk about it here in Europe.
Anyway another thing is that good for Korea would be keeping Hiddink as a coach. He's great coach he managed to qualify with Australia to quaterfinals after great game with Croatia yesterday.

But anyways it's just a stupid game Wink

korean players were not in good mood for sure..
switzerland is not that good..

their key player Hakan Yakin is Turkish-oigin.
the reason he plays for Switzerland is simply because he is not good enough to play for Turkey.

last year he was transfered to Galatasaray (Turkish team), and managed to play for 20 minutes only in the whole season.

i support him for his decision to play for Switzerland (just like his brother Murat Yakin, he also used to play for Swiss until last year), but I just want to emphasise that Swiss are not that good.

anyway, now i support our neighbours (Aussies)..
a Turkish newspaper in Europe called Turkish immigrants to support their countries of residence, it is good to see them integrating to their countries. Immigration Ministers are also happy for this campaign.

most Turks support Germany (almost 3 million immigrants there):

It was off-side. FIFA Law define this situation to Off-side.

to see animations of offside ↓
http://www.fifa.com/en/comp/Offside.html

At the same situation Korean player Chunsoo made, he whistled.
Plus Switzerland did Handling for 3 times, twice in penalty Area.
But referee kept going on everytime. 2 pk were blew out. This is what France and Togo protested before as well. Few days ago Dominek French director also doubt why switzerland keep getting advantages of one-sided judgements by referees.
I wonder why only Swiss players were aware of using hands is allowed in this Worldcup. Referee kept stopping the flow, until this game Korea was ranked lowest fouls, here, Korea 20 fouls Swiss 8 fouls. If our player is standing just beside, it's foul or yellowcard, whatever Swiss do, it's fine.
Referees were definately Switzerland's 12nd player and as long as Blator is FIFA's director Switzerland will not need anything to worry.
Korea did Fair play in 2002, Italy and Spain write novels because they have high-pride and can't simply admit they lost to Korea. Of course they deserve to have high pride. It's funny they made us impossibel to travel Italy for several years, as many travelers got attacked after, even a girl, one man hit her cheeks when she was just walking on the street. :s
We could imagine how much they love soccer and have passionate characters. However soccer is just a soccer~ In reality, nothing changes even if it wins or lost.
Anyways both Korea n Switzerland played well. It's right our defense generation change wasn't successful.
It's better not win than using dirty ways n get a black victory like whom. Laughing
