In the 16th match minute, Tekirdağspor was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Erkut Yönet to maneuver through the defense.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Yaar Triger made a kick off.

After a rather tough play, Ekvator Ginesi's Ufuk Tulunay got a free kick in the 62nd minute. Ufuk Tulunay struck a weak shot in the 67th minute. Bogumil Naujasodis didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Ekvator Ginesi. Yoshafat Frayed sent away a hard shot on goal in the 69th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. In the 71st match minute, Tekirdağspor was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Erkut Yönet to maneuver through the defense.

Emir Çile made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Yaar Triger in the 78th minute of play. If Hristivoj Stoichkov had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 82nd minute.
