Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Demiralp Remiz kicked off to start the match. An unexpectedly hard shot by Aydemir Mahsun in the 5th minute of play forced SEZAİ YÜCE's goalkeeper Alim Kabakçı to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 7th minute, SEZAİ YÜCE's Ahmet Hasan Rafi seemed to kick out at an opponent. The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed Ahmet Hasan Rafi the red card, dismissing him from the pitch. The coaching staff of SEZAİ YÜCE protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and Ahmet Hasan Rafi had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch. In the 6th minute, one of SEZAİ YÜCE:s players had the ball in front of the goal but got pushed and fell. The referee felt it was an obvious case and blew a penalty for SEZAİ YÜCE. The referee gave Aytekin a penalty, 8 minutes into the game. The penalty shot was made by Özmen Hilal, who made a well placed shot into the net to the right of SEZAİ YÜCE's Alim Kabakçı. 0-1. If Armağan İlkutay had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 11th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 15th minute Mustafa Arif Acaröz shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Alim Kabakçı saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Alim Kabakçı showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Aydemir Mahsun in the 17th minute of the match. In the 23rd minute Mustafa Arif Acaröz shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Alim Kabakçı saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Alim Kabakçı showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Mustafa Arif Acaröz in the 29th minute of the match. After 31 minutes, Seyfullah Tüzmen mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the SEZAİ YÜCE and the Aytekin players grew even worse after the yellow card. After 31 played minutes SEZAİ YÜCE got a freekick which was hit by Seyfullah Tüzmen. Aydemir Mahsun sent away a hard shot on goal in the 32nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Alim Kabakçı made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Aydemir Mahsun in the 37th minute of play. Yakut Eralkan struck a weak shot in the 39th minute. Yakup Okbudun didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for SEZAİ YÜCE. When Armağan İlkutay came up free with the goalie in the 43rd minute, the SEZAİ YÜCE 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 Armağan İlkutay couldn't finish the play. Batu Sezginay could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 45th minute of the match, but Yakup Okbudun made a huge save. Batu Sezginay fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 46th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Yakup Okbudun having to interfere. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

The wind increased when Mustafa Arif Acaröz made the kick off in the second half. Alim Kabakçı showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Mustafa Arif Acaröz, who was totally free with the ball in the 54th minute.
