Volkan was sent off in Turkey's 3-2 Group A win over Czech Republic after an off-the-ball incident with Jan Koller.

Apart from a long injury list, the Fenerbahce guardian is among four other Turkish players who will miss the Germany game through suspension.

However, Volkan's deputy Rustu Recber proved to be a more-than-enough replacement in the quarter-finals tie with Croatia, saving a crucial penalty shootout from Mladen Petric.
