Ragıp Hitit took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Ragıp Usluer, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Tansel Hazin's late challenge caught a Yalova's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Tansel Hazin helped the player get up and apologised. Tansel Hazin kicked well hit freekick during the 4th minute of the match. Kutluay Topel's shot straight on target was not completely harmless. The ball had pretty good speed, but Ragıp Hitit firmly grabbed it by the left post.

Ragıp Usluer was the one to do the kick off. 57 minutes into the match, Haluk Ahsen sent off a long shot that looked like it was going straight into the goal, but because Ali Kürşat Özonder threw himself in his full length he managed to grip the ball by the left post, and there was no goal for Haluk Ahsen this time.
