Kecierengücü's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Altinözü the free kick. The supporters of Altinözü booed when Kecierengücü was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 8 match minutes in a wonderful position. Kurtuluş Oğuzbay didn't get a good kick on the ball. After having played for 14 minutes, Hayri Sayar managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Altinözü's supporters crossed their fingers, but Hayri Sayar was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal.

When Hayrettin Aktemur fell near the penalty area in the 25th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Altinözü's protests and gave Hayrettin Aktemur a yellow card for diving instead. After a defensive mix-up in Altinözü's zone, Bektaş Nasip stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Gökmen Kızılateş came out of the goal and Bektaş Nasip tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. After 30 minutes of play, Altinözü's Hayri Sayar made it 0-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Sarp Cantekin was left in no man's land by his defense there! Tuna Koyak received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 39th minute. Gökmen Kızılateş tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. A collision led to Kecierengücü getting a freekick after 42 minutes play.

Altinözü's supporters rose to their feet, but Reis İpekçi was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Sarp Cantekin breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Tuna Koyak might have been able to make a better finish in the 78th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Gökmen Kızılateş. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Tuna Koyak ran back to his position shaking his head. Tuna Koyak recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 80th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. 81 minutes into the match, Kecierengücü's goal looked a bit too open when Hayri Sayar came free, but Sarp Cantekin reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.
