The Turkish national football team has participated in the FIFA World Cup tournament on five occasions. Their first appearance was in 1954, and they have also participated in 1970, 1998, 2002, and 2006.
Their best performance was in the 2002 World Cup, which was co-hosted by South Korea and Japan. Turkey finished in third place, after defeating South Korea in the third-place match. This was the first time Turkey had reached the semi-finals of a World Cup.
In the 2002 World Cup, Turkey was led by coach Senol Gunes, and the team included players such as Hakan Sukur, Ilhan Mansiz, and Rustu Recber. Turkey's success in the tournament boosted the popularity of football in the country, and their performance is still celebrated by football fans in Turkey today.
In recent years, the Turkish national team has struggled to qualify for major tournaments, including the World Cup. However, with a new generation of players coming through, including Cengiz Under, Ozan Tufan, and Merih Demiral, there is hope that the team can achieve success in the future.
