Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Süleyman Pala took the kick off in the first half of the match. 4 minutes into the match, Elmadag SK's Muharrem Necdet broke free and took a long shot that unfortunately flew wide.

Rauf Keskin sent away a hard shot on goal in the 14th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.
