To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. 87 minutes into the game, Emirhan Kayansel was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. !! FC TÜRKİSTAN !!'s manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave HAYMANAGÜCÜ the free kick. If Andaç Hasanbeyli had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 93rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. When Andaç Hasanbeyli came up free with the goalie in the 94th minute, the HAYMANAGÜCÜ 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 Andaç Hasanbeyli couldn't finish the play.

FC TÜRKİSTAN !! players were clearly disappointed as they left the ground.
