Spectators: 6654 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1654, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Ertunç Adıyaman took the kick off in the first half of the match. The supporters of Yahyali booed when Real Mardin was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 2 match minutes in a wonderful position. Arda Şenalp didn't get a good kick on the ball. Çağan Salar made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Nuratay Ünsi in the 6th minute of play. Thanks to some nice moves Serkan Honazlı could shoot a difficult shot in the 9th minute, which Mehmet Hamdi Beksan however easily saved by the left post. After 13 minutes, Talat Kadıoğlu mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Yahyali and the Real Mardin players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 14th minute, Talat Kadıoğlu hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. The audience thought a goal was coming when Serkan Honazlı got free with Mehmet Hamdi Beksan in the 16th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. If Hasan Balbay had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 19th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Mehmet Hamdi Beksan stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Ertunç Adıyaman's shot from short distance in the 29th minute. Ceyhan Ünveren sent away a hard shot on goal in the 36th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Hasan Balbay fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 38th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Çağan Salar having to interfere. The score stood at 0-0 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

Ertunç Adıyaman received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 54th minute. Mehmet Hamdi Beksan tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Real Mardin's Mehmet Hamdi Beksan played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Serkan Honazlı in the 60th minute of play. Ertunç Adıyaman recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 65th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Savaşer Rafi's late challenge caught a Yahyali's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Savaşer Rafi helped the player get up and apologised. In the 68th match minute, Real Mardin was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Savaşer Rafi to maneuver through the defense. Yahyali's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Talat Kadıoğlu in the 71st minute. It was a well-played corner which Mustafa Birol Timurkan managed to volley towards the net. Unfortunately, he didn't get a great hit on the ball and it went out into the grandstand. Ceyhan Ünveren hit a great freekick 74 minutes into the match. Mehmet Hamdi Beksan showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Ertunç Adıyaman, who was totally free with the ball in the 77th minute. In the 85th minute Ertunç Adıyaman shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Mehmet Hamdi Beksan saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. The audience was convinced that Ertunç Adıyaman's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Mehmet Hamdi Beksan was relentless in the 86th minute of the game. Ertunç Adıyaman fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 89th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Mehmet Hamdi Beksan having to interfere. In the 94th minute, Hasan Balbay fired away a killer shot towards the goal that, to the delight of Çağan Salar, passed just outside the right post. The Real Mardin players were the happier at the end of the match as they had prevented Yahyali from taking control. The game ends in a draw.
