Spectators: 7229 (Terracing: 5423, Seating: 1663, VIP seats: 143) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Yusuf Bahadır Özkutlu kicked off to start the match. Arif Nihat Razi stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Okanay Erginalp's shot from short distance in the 2nd minute. 4 minutes into the match, Okanay Erginalp notched a goal, 0-1, to the right of Çaykur Rize Spor Klubü's Arif Nihat Razi. Arif Nihat Razi was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it.
