new generation. to learn more about politics and patriotism is. just one question i can't get out of my head why is turkey not a football powerhouse. home an hour. one holds them back when they finally catch up. war. karo might be turkey's capital but when it comes to football istanbul is just likes to be. the clubs from istanbul have
10:19 am
dominated turkish football for decades. oh they have the largest fan base in the countries but what's it like when the national team is in action. it is a different support for the club and for the national team of course they should give always comes 1st all gone all the diver might seem to have much of what is especially so nation i said before we are quite like most people they think of course everybody got life and i do miss you guys we are was good but no our team takes on the car very supports here's leibowitz as their front group doesn't get the same support. with us only when they're really good it's one of months yeah there's hype going on around round they've come back things in euro 2008. the whole nation crazy for the comeback kid
10:20 am
turkey have played a 2 tournaments where they showed what they can do. at euro 2008 they made it to the semi final in dramatic fashion losing to germany in the final for a few you see only at the 2002 gold cup another semifinal defeat and a 3rd place finish. but the hype is over cookie haven't qualified for a world cup since then and only for one european championship in 2016 they crashed out of the group stages right now in a way to the turkish football federation every want to meet one of the turkish football legends it's how many of. you play football. i know use would be good to children. so it's going. harmeet is now in charge of the youth team set up in turkish football the right men and the right place.
10:21 am
mentality it. is the german mentality you learn just from a young age tommy was born in germany like many other famous turkish players recruiting tell him with turkish roots that born and raised in other european countries it was the federation strategy for years. in the community. well you can only rely on talents from abroad you also need to develop players yourself. how much of this club's going about that are they doing enough. so that's what we're here to find. one of the big 3 in the stuff.
10:22 am
we have around $220.00 football schools all around the cherokee from the ages from $9.00 to $14.00 and. 11000 kids having training. schools. ok so you. know the best one yet. schools means. takes the. best players and. try. but even with the best coaches only a select few make it into the 1st team and into the super league it's especially hard for turkish talents to break through in fact this super league has the highest average playing age and europe's top leagues. 29. the premier league
10:23 am
and the bundesliga. more won his. first. view. of. the management. leaving these kids to the teams. the chance to play in the 1st 11 when i went to. the stadium and i said. now you can see. why i want to play you can dream here. turned. to let me play that it's a recurring character tell them to play is like married to me. initially you know
10:24 am
and also. all of them left the country at a young age to make a name for themselves abroad none of them played for the big 3. turkish sports media the media and the fans ok like for example when plays talented young kids they make a couple mistakes they get booed by their own fans and this has nothing to do with the different clubs this has to do with culture. too much passion too much passion. you know. too much passion to much pressure and then there is politics. the president. is a polarizing figure on the world stage but he's not just politics as a football fan himself even played professionally when he was younger.
10:25 am
lost the national team and his footballing heroes. like. in 26. of us charged with insulting president. the president. being part of the movement seen as a terrorist group. claims the union movement was behind the failed military coup 26 teams. left the country and is now in hiding in the united states. now an enemy of the state. they don't even say his name on television anymore. football is politicized in turkey and many players. during the qualifiers
10:26 am
took his players gave him military. does not allow political gestures and criticize the players the turkish federation to pay $50000.00 euros also because of the political context the salute was made during turkey's military offensive in north and syria in october 21000. you lunch you do with. this found. but not everyone is on the same page when german born con ions caught the late equaliser against france he refused to give the military salute to the ngo some teammates.
10:27 am
there were like tensions going on in the team or something like that yes i noticed that but. this is something. strange. i don't get the columns. he's playing in germany there most of the people get the gesture so. he prefer to spark the other perspective on. i wonder how the team will get on at the euros especially with german bomb players like khan icon. some say patriotism and passion can lead you all the way others say you have to keep a cool head and it's probably a bit of both. politics aside this turkish team are exciting to watch a golden generation in the making a surprise us all again. we believe in our team.
10:28 am
and he'll be there supports our team this one so we don't really think of the young players that like i call way for us just for them to show what they can do in this such big. big. group and the spirit and i've done all. boarding dortch once up there says. bonnie and i don't often. so we spend a couple of days and we had a great insight into. it's not a football powerhouse yet there are many problems but the potential is there the hope for a new. successful generation will be watching closely any chance lautrec here.
