The visitors sit joint top of Group A after two games thanks to their second win of the campaign, while Fatih Terim's side fall to the foot of the table
Borek Dockal struck the winner as the Czech Republic maintained their unbeaten start to Euro 2016 qualifying with a 2-1 victory over Turkey. The Sparta Prague midfielder latched onto a low cross from Pavel Kaderabek two minutes before the hour and fired beyond Tolga Zengin from 12 yards to give the visitors a Group A triumph in Istanbul. Turkey started the match well and moved ahead in the eighth minute through Umut Bulut, but they were unable to turn further possession into goals and were ultimately punished. Tomas Sivok levelled with a powerful header eight minutes after Bulut's opener, but the Czechs had to wait until the second half for Dockal to seal the win. With Iceland emerging 3-0 victors in Latvia, the Czech Republic remain second in Group A with maximum points from their two matches, while Turkey are bottom after a second straight defeat.
