Holy Mackerel, Holy Mackerel!

The Croatia-Turkey quarterfinal game from the UEFA Championships is more than worthy of Al McGuire's classic NCAA tournament game call (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tks-SXUbKok)

Croatia had scored in the final minute of the second extra period. The game was over. This is soccer - err, futbal - right and professional teams do not allow a goal in the last seconds. Wrong!

Turkey tied it in the final seconds and won in the penalty kick shoot-out. Watch
