League Play-Off

Findikzade Stadium
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Naci Tulun took the kick off in the first half of the match. Naci Tulun fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 4th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Burhanettin Demircioğlu having to interfere. 7 minutes into the match, Findikzade FK's goal looked a bit too open when Naci Tulun came free, but Burhanettin Demircioğlu reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After 17 minutes Arguvan's defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Halis Ayvaz who took care of the corner kick. The corner went over the outstretched arms of Arguvan's goalie and right to Sebati Balkanlıoğlu. He fired away a shot at goal, but the shot had too much spin, and it went just outside the goal. Arguvan's manager breathed a sigh of relief on the sidelines as his team had managed to escape an almost certain goal. Burhanettin Demircioğlu didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Kerimhan Baykır went, in the 20th minute, to the upper right corner, 0-1 was the resulting score. The audience thought a goal was coming when Zekai Çelikhan got free with Fırat Teren in the 24th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Kerimhan Baykır fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 27th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Burhanettin Demircioğlu having to interfere. Burhanettin Demircioğlu came out of the goal in the 33rd minute to try and stop a shot by Arguvan's Naci Tulun. But to his dismay, Naci Tulun quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-2. Naci Tulun received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 39th minute. Burhanettin Demircioğlu tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Mümin Sancaktar to strike the kick off in the second half. Naci Tulun sent away a hard shot on goal in the 53rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 55 minutes into the match, Findikzade FK's goal looked a bit too open when Naci Tulun came free, but Burhanettin Demircioğlu reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Arguvan's Naci Tulun got a good chance for a goal in the 57th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After having played for 63 minutes, Zekai Çelikhan managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Findikzade FK's supporters crossed their fingers, but Zekai Çelikhan was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. If Naci Tulun had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 67th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. An unexpectedly hard shot by Mümin Sancaktar in the 75th minute of play forced Arguvan's goalkeeper Fırat Teren to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. An unexpectedly hard shot by Mümin Sancaktar in the 80th minute of play forced Arguvan's goalkeeper Fırat Teren to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Naci Tulun struck a weak shot in the 84th minute. Burhanettin Demircioğlu didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Arguvan. Fırat Teren made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Sebati Balkanlıoğlu in the 94th minute of play. Arguvan played a much better game than Findikzade FK and deserved their victory. The Findikzade FK players were clearly disappointed as they left the ground.
