Turkey defender Merih Demiral’s hand gesture that led to a two-game suspension has sparked a controversy and overshadows Saturday’s match against the Dutch.
Saturday’s European Championship quarterfinal will pit the Netherlands and Donyell Malen, left, against Turkey, which will be without the suspended Merih Demiral, right, in Berlin, Germany. BERLIN — Buildup to the Euro 2024 quarterfinal match between Turkey and the Netherlands has been overshadowed by a diplomatic row.

The ultras can be expected to make it during the game, too. • The Dutch reached the last eight with a 3-0 victory over Romania. The team has been supported by thousands of orange-clad fans, but struggled in the group stage and only squeezed into the last 16 by finishing third in a group behind Austria and France.
