Spectators: 37 (Terracing: 29, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Erkin Cangiray kicked off to start the match. ÜSTEĞMEN FK's Gazi Açıkgün played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Róbert Benkó in the 4th minute of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by Róbert Benkó in the 5th minute of play forced ÜSTEĞMEN FK's goalkeeper Gazi Açıkgün to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

Taci Oruz made in the 12th minute of the game a sloppy throw-in which Erkin Cangiray however managed to control. 14 minutes into the match, ÜSTEĞMEN FK's goalkeeper Gazi Açıkgün had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Elder Godoi. Omar Florinio's late challenge caught a ÜSTEĞMEN FK's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Omar Florinio helped the player get up and apologised. After 20 played minutes, ÜSTEĞMEN FK's Hamdi Sökmensu shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Cristi Miheș 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 ÜSTEĞMEN FK reached it. In the 21st minute Süleyman Soyselçuk shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Cristi Miheș saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After having played for 23 minutes, David Bitănescu managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Armada's supporters crossed their fingers, but David Bitănescu was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. In the 25th minute Róbert Benkó shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Gazi Açıkgün saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. The audience thought a goal was coming when Elder Godoi got free with Gazi Açıkgün in the 30th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Gazi Açıkgün made a fantastic save in the 32nd minute, when Róbert Benkó sent off a good shot on target. Cristi Miheș didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Arın Serkut went, in the 42nd minute, to the upper right corner, 0-1 was the resulting score. In the 48th minute, Róbert Benkó reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Gazi Açıkgün. The goal made the score 1-1.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Róbert Benkó to make the kick off.

After 60 minutes, Arın Serkut mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the ÜSTEĞMEN FK and the Armada players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 60th minute, Arın Serkut hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After 63 minutes of play, Armada's Róbert Benkó made it 2-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net.

Gazi Açıkgün made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 3-1. Armada's Filomeno Igon was substituted for Róbert Benkó. Filomeno Igon might have been able to make a better finish in the 77th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Gazi Açıkgün. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Filomeno Igon ran back to his position shaking his head. 79 minutes into the match, Filomeno Igon had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Gazi Açıkgün. ÜSTEĞMEN FK's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Filomeno Igon was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 4-1. In the 81st minute the ball was on its way in behind ÜSTEĞMEN FK's goalkeeper Gazi Açıkgün, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. 84 minutes into the game, Filomeno Igon cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 5-1.
