League Play-Off

Zara Stadium
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Olcay Sökmen kicked off to start the match. After some careless play in the Zara SK defense, Nafiz Özdoru kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Talha Refettin. The Zara SK fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Talha Refettin should have stopped the shot. Nafiz Özdoru fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 9th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Talha Refettin having to interfere. If Nuh Azim had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 10th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. A hard shot 16 in the game by Seyfettin Kınık from a close distance when the talented Esat Sezgen managed to make a qualified save. Bahcesaray's players were relieved. In the 19th minute Nuh Azim shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Talha Refettin saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. In the 20th minute, Seyfettin Kınık got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. When Zara SK's Seyfettin Kınık, in the 22nd minute, received a pass right in front of the net, it looked like a certain goal, but his shot went outside. A wasted opportunity for Zara SK. If Nuh Azim had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 25th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Esat Sezgen took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Olcay Sökmen, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After 28 minutes, Erdeniz Arman mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Bahcesaray and the Zara SK players grew even worse after the yellow card. After 28 played minutes Bahcesaray got a freekick which was hit by Erdeniz Arman. Esat Sezgen made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Olcay Sökmen in the 34th minute of play. Olcay Sökmen was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 38th minute. Zara SK's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. Zara SK's Olcay Sökmen got a good chance for a goal in the 41st minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Seyfettin Kınık fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 42nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Esat Sezgen having to interfere. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-1 lead.

The wind increased when Nuh Azim made the kick off in the second half. Nuh Azim fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 52nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Talha Refettin having to interfere. Nafiz Özdoru received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 54th minute. Talha Refettin tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Nuh Azim sent away a hard shot on goal in the 58th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After some fancy dribbling in the 63rd minute, Seyfettin Kınık managed to get in a good position for a shot. Zara SK's supporters rose to their feet, but Seyfettin Kınık was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Esat Sezgen breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. After some careless play in the Bahcesaray defense, Olcay Sökmen kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Esat Sezgen. The Bahcesaray fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Esat Sezgen should have stopped the shot. Nafiz Özdoru received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 69th minute. Talha Refettin tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Seyfettin Kınık 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. 79 minutes into the match, Bahcesaray's goal looked a bit too open when Olcay Sökmen came free, but Esat Sezgen reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After a rather tough play, Bahcesaray's Battal Cüneyt Eski got a free kick in the 80th minute. Seyfettin Kınık fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 91st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Esat Sezgen having to interfere. The second half was just like the first, even and exciting. The match ended in a draw.
