BASEL, Switzerland (AP) - Philipp Lahm ended Turkey's storybook run in the European Championship on Wednesday with the late header in a 3-2 semifinal victory which kept Germany on target for a record fourth title.
Semih Senturk kept Turkey in the game with an 86th-minute equalizer, beating Jens Lehmann at the near post to keep Turkey's' challenge alive. Six minutes earlier, Miroslav Klose seemed to have closed out the game for Turkey.
Then, Lahm slotted home the decider from close range in the 89th minute.
