Selendi
Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Ahmet Ziya Kutam started the match with the kick off. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Hafız Uzma in the 3rd managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Alkın Vedat saved Selendi SK from getting behind. The supporters of Selendi SK booed when TÜRKSPORFUTBOL was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 4 match minutes in a wonderful position. Bedir Özalpman didn't get a good kick on the ball. Akın Seci was a little too slow when Affan Uçar got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 5th minute. The score was now 1-0. Hafız Uzma sent away a hard shot on goal in the 19th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Affan Uçar's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Akın Seci read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 21st minute of play. Alişan Akyüz charged in rather forcefully in the 24th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Alişan Akyüz the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Alişan Akyüz hit a great freekick 25 minutes into the match. When Ahmet Ziya Kutam got free in front of the goal in the 28th minute he wasn't very focused and chipped the ball just over the goal. Alkın Vedat was delighted since he was out of position and the ball would have got in if it had gone under the crossbar. Alkın Vedat showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Hafız Uzma in the 29th minute of the match. Ali Faruk Serim's late challenge caught a TÜRKSPORFUTBOL's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Ali Faruk Serim helped the player get up and apologised. Ali Faruk Serim kicked well hit freekick during the 32nd minute of the match. After 33 played minutes Selendi SK got a freekick which was hit by Affan Uçar. After some fancy dribbling in the 36th minute, Affan Uçar managed to get in a good position for a shot. Selendi SK's supporters rose to their feet, but Affan Uçar was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Akın Seci breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. The supporters of Selendi SK booed when TÜRKSPORFUTBOL was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 37 match minutes in a wonderful position. Bedir Özalpman didn't get a good kick on the ball. Ataman Uçbeyi struck a weak shot in the 39th minute. Akın Seci didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Selendi SK. In the 44th minute, Ahmet Ziya Kutam left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The TÜRKSPORFUTBOL fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 1-1. In the 47th minute Ahmet Ziya Kutam shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Alkın Vedat saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After the first half the score was level. The break gave the players a chance to catch their breath, whilst the managers went over the tactics with them again.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Affan Uçar to make the kick off. The supporters of TÜRKSPORFUTBOL booed when Selendi SK was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 51 match minutes in a wonderful position. Affan Uçar didn't get a good kick on the ball. After 56 minutes, Affan Uçar made it 2-1 with a short kick to the right side. TÜRKSPORFUTBOL's Akın Seci tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. The audience thought a goal was coming when Hafız Uzma got free with Alkın Vedat in the 61st minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Selendi SK's Alkın Vedat played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Ahmet Ziya Kutam in the 64th minute of play. When Ali Faruk Serim was, once again, overly rough in his play he received his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. 73 minutes had been played. Akın Seci came out of the goal in the 80th minute to try and stop a shot by Selendi SK's Alişan Akyüz. But to his dismay, Alişan Akyüz quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 3-2. In the 85th minute, Ahmet Ziya Kutam had to be helped off the field due to a pulled leg muscle. The long shot by Ali Asım Erseven in the 87th minute really tested Alkın Vedat's skills. The ball was on its way into the goal to the left of him when he managed to stretch himself and save the shot and avoid a goal. Alkın Vedat made an important save on a dangerous shot by Hafız Uzma in the 89th minute. Birdal Tokdemir recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 96th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal.
