Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Cihan Akgündüz made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Tan Işık in the 7th minute of play. 12 minutes into the match, Incirli's goalkeeper Cihan Akgündüz had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Talat Mirza. Tan Işık sent away a hard shot on goal in the 16th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. If Talat Mirza had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 18th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 19thth minute of the game Tan Işık who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Incirli's Cihan Akgündüz was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. Tan Işık might have been able to make a better finish in the 22nd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Cihan Akgündüz. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Tan Işık ran back to his position shaking his head. 25 minutes into the game, Bozkurt Tetiker was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Incirli's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Zara the free kick. After a rather tough play, Incirli's Bozkurt Tetiker got a free kick in the 25th minute. Talat Mirza fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 28th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Cihan Akgündüz having to interfere. Fehmi Aydıntan hit a great freekick 29 minutes into the match. 35 minutes into the match, Tan Işık had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Cihan Akgündüz. Incirli's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Tan Işık was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-0. In the 38th minute Tan Işık shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Cihan Akgündüz saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Talat Mirza fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 40th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Cihan Akgündüz having to interfere. The fans had the chance to grab some refreshments as the whistle went for half-time. The score stood at 1-1 after a close first half.

An unexpectedly hard shot by Tan Işık in the 51st minute of play forced Incirli's goalkeeper Cihan Akgündüz to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Mustafa Ali Ersezer hit a great freekick 56 minutes into the match. Mustafa Ali Ersezer might have been able to make a better finish in the 64th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Cihan Akgündüz. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Mustafa Ali Ersezer ran back to his position shaking his head. Cihan Akgündüz came out of the goal in the 66th minute to try and stop a shot by Zara's Tan Işık. But to his dismay, Tan Işık quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 2-1. The audience thought a goal was coming when Korkut Tanın got free with Aybar Babaoğlu in the 76th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. 77 minutes into the game, Köksal Timurcan recieved a splendid long ball, split the defenders, and gently placed the ball to the left of Aybar Babaoğlu. Köksal Timurcan showed that you don't have to tear a hole in the net to score, 2-2. In the 83rd minute, Köksal Timurcan hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Zara's Tan Işık got a good chance for a goal in the 88th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Bozkurt Tetiker received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 96th minute. Aybar Babaoğlu tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Both teams had looked equal from kick-off, and no-one was surprised when the match finally ended in a draw.
