Batman Stadium
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Rauf Gazzal made the kick off which started today's match. Turgay Genişyürek received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 2nd minute. Abdi Mehmet Nasih tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. An unexpectedly hard shot by Faruk Nafiz Özata in the 4th minute of play forced Hayrabolu's goalkeeper Abdi Mehmet Nasih to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Turgay Genişyürek came free with the goalkeeper in the 5th minute of the match, and shot straight on target. The shot was a little too simple and Abdi Mehmet Nasih could save by the left post. Batman JK's Faruk Nafiz Özata got a good chance for a goal in the 6th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. When Servet Serdinç came up free with the goalie in the 9th minute, the Hayrabolu 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 Servet Serdinç couldn't finish the play. After a rather tough play, Hayrabolu's Nuri Kayıboylu got a free kick in the 12th minute. Abdi Mehmet Nasih made an important save on a dangerous shot by Faruk Nafiz Özata in the 14th minute. Keramettin Subahi kicked well hit freekick during the 14th minute of the match. Rauf Gazzal might have been able to make a better finish in the 21st minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Buğrahan Açıkalın. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Rauf Gazzal ran back to his position shaking his head. Buğrahan Açıkalın stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Rauf Gazzal's shot from short distance in the 22nd minute. Servet Serdinç recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 31st minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Güner Ulaç fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 32nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Buğrahan Açıkalın having to interfere. The first half was very even, with the score at 0-0 when the whistle went for half-time. The players welcomed the break and quickly retired to the dressing rooms.

Faruk Nafiz Özata sent away a hard shot on goal in the 52nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After some careless play in the Batman JK defense, Servet Serdinç kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Buğrahan Açıkalın. The Batman JK fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Buğrahan Açıkalın should have stopped the shot. A collision led to Batman JK getting a freekick after 65 minutes play. Keramettin Subahi hit a great ball. Buğrahan Açıkalın showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Mustafa Emrah Özden, who was totally free with the ball in the 68th minute. After having played for 69 minutes, Turgay Genişyürek managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Batman JK's supporters crossed their fingers, but Turgay Genişyürek was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Abdulmelik Mengüer hit a great freekick 70 minutes into the match. If Servet Serdinç had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 77th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Hayrabolu's Güner Ulaç got a good chance for a goal in the 96th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Hayrabolu's fans were overjoyed with their teams well-earned victory and stayed in the stadium long after the final whistle to celebrate the win.
