Tandogan Stadium
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Tandogan's Atabek Turbay started the match with a crisp pass. The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. Halim Safa recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 4th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After a rather tough play, Yahsihan's Selami Acar got a free kick in the 9th minute. Sabahattin Suhan struck a weak shot in the 10th minute. Abdullah Sazak didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Tandogan. Vehdi Mengü charged in rather forcefully in the 11th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Vehdi Mengü the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Abdullah Sazak was in the perfect position, and the defense had done a good job marking him, but Sabahattin Suhan showcased his skills and made a perfect shot to score 1-0 in the 20 minute of play. 24 minutes into the match, Sabahattin Suhan had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Abdullah Sazak. Yahsihan's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Sabahattin Suhan was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 2-0. In the 27th minute, Atabek Turbay reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Abdullah Sazak. The goal made the score 3-0. After 32 minutes, İsmail Orhun Uluğ mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Yahsihan and the Tandogan players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 32nd minute, İsmail Orhun Uluğ hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Halim Safa fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 37th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Alphan Ergün having to interfere. 40 minutes into the game, Atabek Turbay was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Tandogan's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Yahsihan the free kick. The supporters of Yahsihan booed when Tandogan was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 40 match minutes in a wonderful position. Atabek Turbay didn't get a good kick on the ball. Halim Safa struck a weak shot in the 43rd minute. Alphan Ergün didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Yahsihan.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Halim Safa made a kick off. Halim Safa sent away a hard shot on goal in the 52nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Thanks to some nice foot action and superb ball handling Sabahattin Suhan in the 56th minute a chance for a shot on goal. With an extended leg and a bit of luck Abdullah Sazak prevented the ball from getting in the gole. Abdullah Sazak showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Sabahattin Suhan, who was totally free with the ball in the 58th minute. In the 62nd minute, Yahsihan's Halim Safa dribbled the ball into the box and hit a shot with the outside of his foot, sending the keeper the wrong way. 3-1. In the 70th play minute Anıl Seyfi came free and shot an unsuspected shot which went into goal from the right pole behind a surprised Alphan Ergün. 3-2. Sabahattin Suhan fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 78th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Abdullah Sazak having to interfere. If Halim Safa had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 83rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. With a little luck, Tandogan's Alphan Ergün got control of the ball when Anıl Seyfi tried to sneak it across the goal line. When Sabahattin Suhan came up free with the goalie in the 90th minute, the Tandogan fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Sabahattin Suhan couldn't finish the play. The referee blew his whistle, and the match came to a close. The players exchanged shirts and headed down the tunnel. The Tandogan fans cheered their team off the field, for while Yahsihan had put up a good fight, they were unable to come out of the game with any points to show for their effort.
