Halfeti's supporters crossed their fingers, but Şamil Irgat was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Şamil Irgat stepped up to make the kick off in the second half.

When Cengiz Masum came up free with the goalie in the 82nd minute, the Banaz JK fans jumped to their feet.

Evren Davutoğlu scored 1-1 in the 84th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Afşin Özguven, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot.
