Carno Arena
Spectators: 161 (Terracing: 121, Seating: 37, VIP seats: 3) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. İsmail Cem Eroğlu started the match with the kick off. Menderes Mertoğlu received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 3rd minute. Duran Özmen tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After 9 minutes of play, Çanakkale's Koray Tibet made it 0-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net.

Süleyman Sebukalp took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from İsmail Cem Eroğlu, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Carno FK's Menderes Mertoğlu was standing unmarked in front of the goal when he, in the 16th play minute, got the ball and easily drilled it into the goal.

An unexpectedly hard shot by Doğaner Geylan in the 35th minute of play forced Carno FK's goalkeeper Süleyman Sebukalp to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

Carno FK's Süleyman Sebukalp proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 83rd minute of the match, managed to save Carno FK from getting a goal against them. In the 85th minute the ball was on its way in behind Çanakkale's goalkeeper Duran Özmen, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. In the 87th minute, Halil Baytekin hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Menderes Mertoğlu, 87 minutes into the match, dribbled the ball up the side of the field and decided to take a long shot at the goal. Unfortunately, the ball was poorly hit and landed closer to the corner than to the goal. Menderes Mertoğlu struck a weak shot in the 93rd minute. Duran Özmen didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Carno FK. Neither set of supporters seemed pleased with the draw, but both teams had played equally well today.
