In the 10th minute Vatan Uluçkan shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Mustafa Cumhur Babayiğit saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Müfit Sahat to make the kick off. Erol Canser 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. Abdi Saygın Öksüz took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Müfit Sahat, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. When Sergen Savaş fell near the penalty area in the 60th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick.
