Simav Stadium
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Gürkan Ağçelik was astounded when the referee showed him the red card after a seemingly innocent challenge, 4 minutes into the match. The referee blew the whistle for a penalty in the 3rd minute of the game. One of Simav FK:s players had nearly got his shirt torn off by an opponent while getting free in front of Sögütlü:s goal.

In the 12th minute, Ayvaz Ötüken got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Bahadırhan Tongal didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Ayvaz Ötüken went, in the 17th minute, to the upper right corner, 0-2 was the resulting score. 25 minutes into the match, Zeynel Tekinsoy notched a goal, 0-3, to the right of Simav FK's Bahadırhan Tongal. Bahadırhan Tongal was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Bahadırhan Tongal took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Ayvaz Ötüken, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. The Sögütlü fans' excitement grew in the 32nd match minute when Sögütlü's Ayvaz Ötüken looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal. The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 0-4 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene. Ayvaz Ötüken fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 39th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Bahadırhan Tongal having to interfere. Ayvaz Ötüken took the ball and in the 41 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Bahadırhan Tongal. Bahadırhan Tongal dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 0-5. 48 minutes into the game, Ayvaz Ötüken cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 0-6. Bahadırhan Tongal was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. After the first half Sögütlü were leading 0-6. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Batu Avcu was the one to do the kick off. Sögütlü's Suat Buğra played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Batu Avcu in the 58th minute of play. After some careless play in the Simav FK defense, Ayvaz Ötüken kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Bahadırhan Tongal. The Simav FK fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Bahadırhan Tongal should have stopped the shot. Simav FK's Bahadırhan Tongal played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Zeynel Tekinsoy in the 78th minute of play. Zeynel Tekinsoy received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 80th minute. Bahadırhan Tongal tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. An unexpectedly hard shot by Zeynel Tekinsoy in the 81st minute of play forced Simav FK's goalkeeper Bahadırhan Tongal to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Suat Buğra took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Batu Avcu, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 84 minutes into the match, Batu Avcu had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Suat Buğra. Sögütlü's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Batu Avcu was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-7. Simav FK's Bahadırhan Tongal proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 91st minute of the match, managed to save Simav FK from getting a goal against them. After 94 minutes, Tuğrul Bilge mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Simav FK and the Sögütlü players grew even worse after the yellow card. A collision led to Simav FK getting a freekick after 94 minutes play. Tuğrul Bilge hit a great ball. Suat Buğra showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Batu Avcu, who was totally free with the ball in the 98th minute. When the match was over Sögütlü could go home with a victory in their luggage, having controlled the game far better than Simav FK throughout the match.
