TENERO (Switzerland) - Germany striker Miroslav Klose said on Saturday the fighting-spirit of come-back kings Turkey is his side's biggest concern ahead of next Wednesday's Euro 2008 semi-final.

Klose scored in last Thursday's 3-2 quarter-final win over Portugal and Germany will now return to Basel to face Turkey who came from behind for the third time in succession to beat Croatia on penalties in Friday's quarter-final. Turkey have earned a reputation for grabbing wins at the death. In their group A games, Turkey beat co-hosts Switzerland 2-1 with the winner scored in time added on and then came from 2-0 down to floor the Czech Republic with a flurry of late goals and claim a 3-2 victory.
