Ercüment Tuğsavaş fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 62nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Kutlu Akarslan having to interfere. Cuma Yaves placed the ball on the penalty spot and got himself ready to shoot. Post out! If Gökçek Sirri had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 77th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

When Kadri Yertan came up free with the goalie in the 94th minute, the Gerze 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 Kadri Yertan couldn't finish the play. In the 99th minute, Gökçek Sirri left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Sütcüler SK fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 5-0. When the referee ended the match the Sütcüler SK players were able to celebrate. They had won a fair victory and recieved the ovations of their fans.
