Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when İlbey Yalvaç kicked off to start the match. Volkan Kutluay didn't succeed in stopping the ball in the 4th minute, which inside left pole to 1-0. W A R A W A R A S K's Abuzer Oğuralp played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by İlbey Yalvaç in the 6th minute of play. In the 11th minute, Özcan Varan hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Abuzer Oğuralp showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from İlbey Yalvaç in the 14th minute of the match. Korcan Abanoz struck a weak shot in the 17th minute. Volkan Kutluay didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for W A R A W A R A S K. Murat Selim Nazım in the 23rdth minute had a little luck and got a chance for a shot in front of the goal. Without hesitation aimed to the right of Volkan Kutluay, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. Talha Ümran hit a great freekick 24 minutes into the match. 26 minutes into the match, W A R A W A R A S K's goal looked a bit too open when İlbey Yalvaç came free, but Abuzer Oğuralp reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Abuzer Oğuralp came out of the goal in the 29th minute to try and stop a shot by Catalzeytin SK's İlbey Yalvaç. But to his dismay, İlbey Yalvaç quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-1. Volkan Kutluay showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Murat Selim Nazım, who was totally free with the ball in the 33rd minute. After a defensive mix-up in Catalzeytin SK's zone, Korcan Abanoz stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Volkan Kutluay came out of the goal and Korcan Abanoz tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. The audience was convinced that Korcan Abanoz's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Volkan Kutluay was relentless in the 44th minute of the game. After 45 minutes, Ahmet Nasir Mutlu made it 2-1 with a short kick to the right side. Catalzeytin SK's Volkan Kutluay tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 2-1 at half-time.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Korcan Abanoz to strike the kick off in the second half. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Korcan Abanoz in the 53rd managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Volkan Kutluay saved Catalzeytin SK from getting behind. Through an outstanding action, after 57 minutes, Abuzer Oğuralp successfully got his hands on the ball before it slid into the goal at the right post. Korcan Abanoz received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 59th minute. Volkan Kutluay tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. If Talha Ümran had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 65th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 66thth minute of the game Korcan Abanoz who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Catalzeytin SK's Volkan Kutluay was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. W A R A W A R A S K were awarded a corner in the 67th minute after Catalzeytin SK's defender lost control of the ball, allowing it to roll out over the line. Ahmet Nasir Mutlu took the corner.

In the 79th match minute, Catalzeytin SK was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Bahtiyar Samih to maneuver through the defense. Volkan Kutluay showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Talha Ümran in the 82nd minute of the match. 87 minutes into the game, Hazar Vefa was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Catalzeytin SK's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave W A R A W A R A S K the free kick. The supporters of W A R A W A R A S K booed when Catalzeytin SK was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 87 match minutes in a wonderful position. Hazar Vefa didn't get a good kick on the ball. W A R A W A R A S K's Ahmet Nasir Mutlu got a good chance for a goal in the 88th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. An unexpectedly hard shot by Murat Selim Nazım in the 91st minute of play forced Catalzeytin SK's goalkeeper Volkan Kutluay to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. İlbey Yalvaç sent away a hard shot on goal in the 92nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. W A R A W A R A S K's fans were exulted and cheered after their team won in a match that could easily have gone the other way.
