Merih Hasret didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Geçkinli. 43 minutes into the game, Ali Asım Özen cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 0-3. Merih Hasret was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. The €RD€MLİ MUZ SK players were disheartened as they walked off the pitch after the first half. Geçkinli were winning 0-3.

A hard shot by Ali Asım Özen from long distance, 57 minutes into the match, got Merih Hasret's attention. Through a fast twist with his body, he could stop the ball from going in on his right side. After 59 minutes of play Geçkinli's Birol Temizkal was too eager in his attempt to stop his opponent and brought him down. With that he got his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. In the 60th minute, Birol Temizkal hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. The audience thought a goal was coming when Ali Asım Özen got free with Merih Hasret in the 65th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Ali Asım Özen sent away a hard shot on goal in the 69th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Aykut Bilkan showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Yıldıray Öksal in the 80th minute of the match. The supporters of €RD€MLİ MUZ SK booed when Geçkinli was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 80 match minutes in a wonderful position. Metin Şendoğan didn't get a good kick on the ball. After 83 played minutes Geçkinli got a freekick which was hit by Metin Şendoğan. 87 minutes into the match, Geçkinli's goal looked a bit too open when Yıldıray Öksal came free, but Aykut Bilkan reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. An unexpectedly hard shot by Evren Güzir in the 90th minute of play forced Geçkinli's goalkeeper Aykut Bilkan to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

After 94 played minutes, €RD€MLİ MUZ SK's Necmi Erdemir shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Aykut Bilkan came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in €RD€MLİ MUZ SK reached it. The referee blew the final whistle, and the away crowd roared, having watched Geçkinli eke out a victory against a very well matched opponent.
