League Play-Off

Edirnekapi
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Hamdullah Makbul started the match with the kick off. In the 5th minute Hamdullah Makbul shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Ahmet Kadri İnanoğlu saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Through an outstanding action, after 9 minutes, Kemalettin Aşkıner successfully got his hands on the ball before it slid into the goal at the right post. Edirnekapi's Ahmet Kadri İnanoğlu played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Hamdullah Makbul in the 14th minute of play. After some fancy dribbling in the 15th minute, Ziya Nadi managed to get in a good position for a shot. Yesilli JK's supporters rose to their feet, but Ziya Nadi was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Ahmet Kadri İnanoğlu breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Cumhur Umurbey's late challenge caught a Yesilli JK's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Cumhur Umurbey helped the player get up and apologised. Cumhur Umurbey hit a great freekick 18 minutes into the match. If Ziya Nadi had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 23rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a rather tough play, Edirnekapi's Cumhur Umurbey got a free kick in the 29th minute. 31 minutes into the match, Edirnekapi's goal looked a bit too open when Hamdullah Makbul came free, but Ahmet Kadri İnanoğlu reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 33rd minute Ziya Nadi shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Ahmet Kadri İnanoğlu saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. If Cihangir Ruşen had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 35th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. If Ziya Nadi had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 41st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Mahmut Şahsuvaroğlu kicked well hit freekick during the 42nd minute of the match. After a very even first half the match was still tied. The players went to their respective dressing rooms to discuss the tactics for the second half.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Cihangir Ruşen stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Cihangir Ruşen sent away a hard shot on goal in the 59th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. Ali Vedat Cingöz charged in rather forcefully in the 60th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Ali Vedat Cingöz the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. A collision led to Yesilli JK getting a freekick after 60 minutes play. Ali Vedat Cingöz hit a great ball. An unexpectedly hard shot by Hamdullah Makbul in the 63rd minute of play forced Edirnekapi's goalkeeper Ahmet Kadri İnanoğlu to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. An unexpectedly hard shot by Cihangir Ruşen in the 72nd minute of play forced Yesilli JK's goalkeeper Kemalettin Aşkıner to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Hamdullah Makbul sent away a hard shot on goal in the 77th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Ziya Nadi recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 79th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Ziya Nadi sent away a hard shot on goal in the 81st minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. After 82 minutes of play Edirnekapi's Cumhur Umurbey was too eager in his attempt to stop his opponent and brought him down. With that he got his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. In the 86th minute, Poyraz Mustafali sent off a long shot on goal, but the shot was nowhere near the goal and Edirnekapi's Ahmet Kadri İnanoğlu didn't even have to move. Ziya Nadi received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 87th minute. Ahmet Kadri İnanoğlu tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Kasım Alatay blasted a shot towards the goal in the 94th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Kemalettin Aşkıner having to make a save. When the referee blew the final whistle, you could see the dissatisfaction in the Yesilli JK players' eyes. They were disappointed they hadn't taken more from the game.
