Ahmet Kağan Okanay breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Erman Kuntay's late challenge caught a Recepafsin's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain.

Ahmet Kağan Okanay dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 0-1. Abdulvahit Kenan's shot straight on target was not completely harmless. The ball had pretty good speed, but Ahmet Kağan Okanay firmly grabbed it by the left post.
