Kosovo vs Turkey promises to be an electric showdown between two sides that still value the old-school mercurial touch. Fisnik Asllani and Arda Güler are a dying breed of footballer, ghosts within the machine of modern systems-based coaching methods, so the prospect of these playmakers throwing it back on the same field of play feels like a real treat.

Turkey's decision-making in the final third is a consistent source of consternation. They had 16 shots in their 1-0 win over Romania, only two of which were on target. 11 of the 16 came from outside the box, several not far from the centre-circle.

There was a double-dose of irony, therefore, in the breakthrough coming from a gorgeously weighted defence-splitting pass from Güler, and a delicate touch and finish from Ferdi Kadioglu, a defender on the day. Will that impact Vincenzo Montella's approach, as the Crescent-Stars chase a first World Cup appearance since their sensational third-place finish in 2002? Almost certainly not.

Guler and fellow attacking prodigy Kenan Yildiz are so lively they allow the team to play without an out-and-out striker, while the chip on Hakan Çalhanoğlu's shoulder, stemming from being largely overlooked on both the club and international stage, has given the skipper an otherworldly drive that could do with reining in sometimes.

The winning team will join USA, Australia and Paraguay in Group D.
