Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Ali Süngü started the match with the kick off in front of an excited audience. The audience thought a goal was coming when Celil Yazır got free with Ali Berkant Kotuzhan in the 7th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Imranli's Numan Habiboğlu suffered a concussion after 9 minutes and had to leave the field. When Birdal İlbaşı fell near the penalty area in the 9th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Club Meftun's protests and gave Birdal İlbaşı a yellow card for diving instead. After 10 played minutes, Imranli's Genco Uçma shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Ali Berkant Kotuzhan came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Imranli reached it. A collision led to Imranli getting a freekick after 15 minutes play. Arif Burak Haylaz hit a great ball. After some fancy dribbling in the 17th minute, Müfit Oğuztan managed to get in a good position for a shot. Club Meftun's supporters rose to their feet, but Müfit Oğuztan was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Ferid Ateşoğlu breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Ali Berkant Kotuzhan made an important save on a dangerous shot by Celil Yazır in the 19th minute. Celil Yazır fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 20th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Ali Berkant Kotuzhan having to interfere. After some fancy dribbling in the 22nd minute, Arif Burak Haylaz managed to get in a good position for a shot. Imranli's supporters rose to their feet, but Arif Burak Haylaz was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post.

Imranli's Ferid Ateşoğlu played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Müfit Oğuztan in the 28th minute of play. Affan Tengiz sent away a hard shot on goal in the 35th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. If Arif Tugay Rehber had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 38th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Club Meftun's Ali Berkant Kotuzhan proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 40th minute of the match, managed to save Club Meftun from getting a goal against them. In the 43rd minute Ali Süngü shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Ferid Ateşoğlu saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. When Samet Sidar fell near the penalty area in the 45th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Club Meftun's protests and gave Samet Sidar a yellow card for diving instead. Samet Sidar hit a great freekick 46 minutes into the match. After the first half the score was level. The break gave the players a chance to catch their breath, whilst the managers went over the tactics with them again.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Celil Yazır made a kick off. In the 53rd minute, Birdal İlbaşı hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. The supporters of Club Meftun booed when Imranli was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 56 match minutes in a wonderful position. Arif Tugay Rehber didn't get a good kick on the ball. After 60 minutes, Müfit Oğuztan made it 0-1 with a short kick to the right side. Imranli's Ferid Ateşoğlu tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. When Müfit Oğuztan came up free with the goalie in the 66th minute, the Club Meftun 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 Müfit Oğuztan couldn't finish the play. Celil Yazır received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 72nd minute. Ali Berkant Kotuzhan tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Celil Yazır struck a weak shot in the 74th minute. Ali Berkant Kotuzhan didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Imranli. If Celil Yazır had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 79th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Celil Yazır's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Ali Berkant Kotuzhan read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 81st minute of play. 85 minutes into the game, Tümer Kutay was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Club Meftun's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Imranli the free kick. Tümer Kutay hit a great freekick 85 minutes into the match. In the 87th minute Celil Yazır shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Ali Berkant Kotuzhan saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. An unexpectedly hard shot by Celil Yazır in the 90th minute of play forced Club Meftun's goalkeeper Ali Berkant Kotuzhan to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. The Imranli supporters were disappointed that their team didn't take anything from the match, despite matching Club Meftun's performance. The match ended with a win for Club Meftun.
