Did we ever get an answer to the question of whether we have to take passports to the game? Uefa just says passports preferable but in their usual helpful way don't say what else (driving licence?) could be used. It does say national ID cards acceptable but as we do not have one in the UK that's not much use to us.

Have to take passports everywhere in Turkey. Everywhere. You get arrested (or face a hefty bribe) if checked and you have no passport.

What are the odds of being stopped and asked to show your passport though? No fucking way am I taking mine out with me on Friday night to Nevizade Street

Slim to possible. Dunno. Had the same in China and they stopped me only at the subway

Is this true? I assumed the Metro was running all night so we could get back to Taksim from Yenikapi?

Suppose the only consolation if that isn't the case is that thousands of fans will be in the same boat!

The fact they are dropping us off at Yenikapi metro stop suggests the metro will be running.

Thanks for this. Got into Turkey in the early hours and still hadn't seen any timetable by then.

Get yourself a money belt or a little bum bag you can wear around your chest.
