Yusufeli
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Fikri Güleryüz kicked off to start the match. Atilla Tarkan Cenap didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Fikri Güleryüz went, in the 3rd minute, to the upper right corner, 0-1 was the resulting score. After some fancy dribbling in the 6th minute, Fikri Güleryüz managed to get in a good position for a shot. Sarayburnu JK's supporters rose to their feet, but Fikri Güleryüz was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Atilla Tarkan Cenap breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 10 minutes into the match, Fikri Güleryüz notched a goal, 0-2, to the right of Yusufeli FK's Atilla Tarkan Cenap. Atilla Tarkan Cenap was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Şafak Ergüleç received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 13th minute. Hayyam Uluman tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Batıhan Kırgız sent away a hard shot on goal in the 17th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Hayyam Uluman showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Şafak Ergüleç, who was totally free with the ball in the 19th minute. In the 19th minute, Eyüp Usare hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Batıhan Kırgız in the 21stth minute had a little luck and got a chance for a shot in front of the goal. Without hesitation aimed to the right of Hayyam Uluman, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. After 26 minutes of play Sarayburnu JK's Eyüp Usare was too eager in his attempt to stop his opponent and brought him down. With that he got his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. In the 27th minute, Eyüp Usare hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Anıl Arda Tufan's late challenge caught a Yusufeli FK's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Anıl Arda Tufan helped the player get up and apologised. The supporters of Yusufeli FK booed when Sarayburnu JK was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 28 match minutes in a wonderful position. Anıl Arda Tufan didn't get a good kick on the ball. 31 minutes into the match, Yusufeli FK's goal looked a bit too open when Anıl Arda Tufan came free, but Atilla Tarkan Cenap reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Okanay Yergin during the 38th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. After a rather tough play, Yusufeli FK's Okanay Yergin got a free kick in the 39th minute. 45 minutes into the match, Yusufeli FK's goal looked a bit too open when Anıl Arda Tufan came free, but Atilla Tarkan Cenap reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After the first half Sarayburnu JK were leading 0-2. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Şafak Ergüleç stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Okanay Yergin was shown his second yellow card after 53 minutes, following a rather ugly tackle on opponent. That was the end of his participation in the match. Yusufeli FK's Atilla Tarkan Cenap proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 62nd minute of the match, managed to save Yusufeli FK from getting a goal against them. After having played for 67 minutes, Anıl Arda Tufan managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Sarayburnu JK's supporters crossed their fingers, but Anıl Arda Tufan was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. In the 72nd minute Batıhan Kırgız shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Hayyam Uluman saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. With a little luck, Yusufeli FK's Atilla Tarkan Cenap got control of the ball when Anıl Arda Tufan tried to sneak it across the goal line. If Anıl Arda Tufan had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 84th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

They errupted in celebration when the whistle blew, knowing Sarayburnu JK would go home with victory in their luggage after a match that easily could have ended differently.
