Turkey hold Iceland to reach Euro 2020 alongside France

ISTANBUL - Turkey booked their place at Euro 2020 on Thursday after a goalless qualifying draw with Iceland which also sent world champions France to next year s finals.

"We are so happy that we have qualified for the Euro. Now we have one more game to play, and then we ll focus our clubs until March," said Turkey s Leicester defender Caglar Soyuncu. "We came here four points adrift and Turkey are such a strong team. We did everything we could," said Iceland forward Mikael Anderson.Didier Deschamps France would have qualified for the Euros with a win over Moldova later on Thursday regardless of the result between Iceland and the Turks -- who have been rejuvenated since Senol Gunes returned to take charge in February -- and can now move top of the group.

That upturn in form comes after a dreadful slump under previous coach Mircea Lucescu that saw Turkey fail to qualify for the last year s World Cup in Russia and relegated to third-tier League C in the UEFA Nations League.
