In the 23rd minute of the match Üzümlü got a corner. ELMALI SPOR's goalie ran out to the linesman to protest the call, but the linesman resolutely pointed his flag at the cornerflag. Çelebi Korkutalp ran over to the corner to take the kick. After a rather tough play, ELMALI SPOR's Özgün Çırak got a free kick in the 25th minute. Çelebi Korkutalp was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 26th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. 27 minutes into the match, ELMALI SPOR's goal looked a bit too open when Erdi Nurdag came free, but Afşar Başar reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.
