Fans troll Messi and Yamal over Guler
Güler became the youngest-ever player to score on their European Championship debut, netting a sensational strike to put Türkiye back in front in the 3-1 win against Georgia
The former Fenerbahçe wonderkid then watched from the bench after contributing to five chances in the match - the joint-most by a teenager in a Euros game since 1980, as a late winner from his teammate sealed the deal.

That performance and stats saw fans take to social media to react, with some having a go at former and present Barcelona stars Messi and Yamal.
"Messi never got these numbers in the Euros!" ranted one Real Madrid supporter on social media.
