PETEK ARENA
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Göktürk Öktemer started the match with the kick off. In the 16th minute Ali Orhan Korgan shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Ahmet Çağrı Ceri saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. İdris Elçibey sent away a hard shot on goal in the 18th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. Cihangir S.K's Ali Orhan Korgan got a good chance for a goal in the 19th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. If Göktürk Öktemer had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 25th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. An unexpectedly hard shot by Göktürk Öktemer in the 27th minute of play forced Cihangir S.K's goalkeeper Üzeyir Polatalp to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. After some fancy dribbling in the 29th minute, Göktürk Öktemer managed to get in a good position for a shot. Kocamustafapasa SK's supporters rose to their feet, but Göktürk Öktemer was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Üzeyir Polatalp breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. In the 35th minute, Cihangir S.K's İdris Elçibey dribbled the ball into the box and hit a shot with the outside of his foot, sending the keeper the wrong way. 1-0. Cihangir S.K's Üzeyir Polatalp played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Aytekin Temcit in the 45th minute of play. 47 minutes into the match, Kocamustafapasa SK's Arda Senih broke free and took a long shot that unfortunately flew wide. A fine initiative that could have resulted in a goal. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 1-0 at half-time.

Göktürk Öktemer fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 53rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Üzeyir Polatalp having to interfere. After 56 minutes, Osman Sungur mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Kocamustafapasa SK and the Cihangir S.K players grew even worse after the yellow card. Osman Sungur hit a great freekick 56 minutes into the match. Ahmet Çağrı Ceri made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from İdris Elçibey in the 60th minute of play. After 64 played minutes Kocamustafapasa SK got a freekick which was hit by Muhammet Uzalp.

Ahmet Çağrı Ceri took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from İdris Elçibey, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. An unexpectedly hard shot by İdris Elçibey in the 77th minute of play forced Kocamustafapasa SK's goalkeeper Ahmet Çağrı Ceri to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Celal İrgun hit a great freekick 80 minutes into the match. In the 83rd minute, Göktürk Öktemer reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Üzeyir Polatalp. The goal made the score 1-2. Ahmet Çağrı Ceri showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from İdris Elçibey, who was totally free with the ball in the 90th minute. If Ali Orhan Korgan had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 93rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The Kocamustafapasa SK players were relieved to hear the final whistle blow to end the match. The away crowd was happy to see their team win after a very tight game.
