Without hesitation aimed to the right of Alpertunga Sertel, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. Melik Tekalp kicked well hit freekick during the 23rd minute of the match. The supporters of Saldagücü booed when Bucak was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 24 match minutes in a wonderful position. Namık Işın didn't get a good kick on the ball. After a defensive mix-up in Bucak's zone, Sait Alp stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Alpertunga Sertel came out of the goal and Sait Alp tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play.

Gani Salik made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Tarkan Makul in the 35th minute of play. After 36 played minutes Saldagücü got a freekick which was hit by Orhan Seyfi Işılay. After having played for 38 minutes, Tarkan Makul managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Bucak's supporters crossed their fingers, but Tarkan Makul was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. After a rather tough play, Saldagücü's Temel Uzman got a free kick in the 44th minute. Tarkan Makul took the ball and in the 46 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Gani Salik. Gani Salik dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 0-1. Disappointed in the 0-1 score, the home team went to the dressing room to adjust tactics for the second half.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Gencal Salik was the one to do the kick off. Gani Salik showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Ahmet Gökalp Seyran in the 54th minute of the match. In the 68th minute, Tarkan Makul ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Gani Salik was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-2. 80 minutes into the game, Saldagücü's Gencal Salik nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Alpertunga Sertel made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 2-2. Bucak's Alpertunga Sertel played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Orhan Seyfi Işılay in the 90th minute of play. Saldagücü succeeded in salvaging a draw, even though Bucak had controlled the match.
