MUSTAFA ÖZKAN
Spectators: 7251 (Terracing: 5440, Seating: 1667, VIP seats: 144) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Nusret Kamaci started the match with the kick off. 3 minutes into the game, Egirdir's Mousa Sow nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Nurettin Turabi made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 0-1. The audience thought a goal was coming when Niyazi Özbir got free with Ahmet Yahya Denizhan in the 10th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Ahmet Yahya Denizhan showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Nusret Kamaci in the 12th minute of the match. In the 15th minute the ball was on its way in behind Egirdir's goalkeeper Ahmet Yahya Denizhan, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. After a defensive mix-up in BOZKURT FC's zone, Mousa Sow stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Nurettin Turabi came out of the goal and Mousa Sow tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. In the 23rd minute of the match Yaşar Tayfun shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but Nurettin Turabi showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball. Niyazi Özbir took the ball and in the 33 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Ahmet Yahya Denizhan. Ahmet Yahya Denizhan dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 2-1. When Sertel Murtaza came up free with the goalie in the 40th minute, the Egirdir fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Sertel Murtaza couldn't finish the play. The supporters of BOZKURT FC booed when Egirdir was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 42 match minutes in a wonderful position. Mousa Sow didn't get a good kick on the ball. Egirdir's Güney Baykara managed, thanks to a brazen rush, stole the ball on a throw-in made by Abdullatif Tekindağ in the 45 minute of the game. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 2-1 at half-time.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Mousa Sow to strike the kick off in the second half. Nurettin Turabi showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Mousa Sow in the 52nd minute of the match. When the match had gone on for 54 minutes, Yenal Kanber took a quick shot and it went in 2-2 without a chance for Nurettin Turabi to make any attempt to save it. If Yenal Kanber had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 57th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After some fancy dribbling in the 66th minute, Mousa Sow managed to get in a good position for a shot. Egirdir's supporters rose to their feet, but Mousa Sow was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Nurettin Turabi breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. After some fancy dribbling in the 71st minute, Yenal Kanber managed to get in a good position for a shot. Egirdir's supporters rose to their feet, but Yenal Kanber was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Nurettin Turabi breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Nurettin Turabi stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Mousa Sow's shot from short distance in the 74th minute. Ahmet Yahya Denizhan showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Niyazi Özbir, who was totally free with the ball in the 75th minute. After a rather tough play, BOZKURT FC's Mehmet Emin Bekdil got a free kick in the 77th minute. Yenal Kanber received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 80th minute. Nurettin Turabi tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 82nd minute the ball was on its way in behind BOZKURT FC's goalkeeper Nurettin Turabi, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. Sertel Murtaza might have been able to make a better finish in the 84th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Nurettin Turabi. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Sertel Murtaza ran back to his position shaking his head. After a defensive mix-up in BOZKURT FC's zone, Mousa Sow stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Nurettin Turabi came out of the goal and Mousa Sow tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. BOZKURT FC's Nurettin Turabi played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Çağrı Sefir in the 93rd minute of play. Sertel Murtaza sent away a hard shot on goal in the 95th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.
