Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Şafak Çiftçioğlu took the kick off in the first half of the match. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Şafak Çiftçioğlu in the 4th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Doğukan Kudretullah saved FORZA GÖZTEPE from getting behind. Doğukan Kudretullah made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Mehmet Emre İsmihan in the 7th minute of play.

This resulted in a 1-0 score and a disappointed Doğukan Kudretullah as he didn't even see the shot coming. Gürcan Akboğa's shot straight on target was not completely harmless. The ball had pretty good speed, but Doğukan Kudretullah firmly grabbed it by the left post. After a defensive mix-up in FORZA GÖZTEPE's zone, Şehzade Sökmen stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat.
