Anafartalar's Serbülent Mert got a good chance for a goal in the 43rd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. In the 48th minute, Serbülent Mert left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Anafartalar fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 0-2. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-2 lead.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and İlyas Tolga Dural made a kick off. 56 minutes into the match, Anafartalar's goal looked a bit too open when İlyas Tolga Dural came free, but Erdinç Toker reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. If İlyas Tolga Dural had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 58th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. 62 minutes into the game, Ayberk Tekdoğan was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Anafartalar's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave ATA SPOR the free kick. After a rather tough play, Anafartalar's Asım Arif Adak got a free kick in the 64th minute. When Damian Kalak fell near the penalty area in the 70th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored ATA SPOR's protests and gave Damian Kalak a yellow card for diving instead. After 70 played minutes ATA SPOR got a freekick which was hit by Damian Kalak. The audience was convinced that Serbülent Mert's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Refik Halit Öğeturk was relentless in the 72nd minute of the game. The ATA SPOR fans' excitement grew in the 77th match minute when ATA SPOR's Battal Seyyit Cerme looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal. The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 2-2 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene. ATA SPOR's İlyas Tolga Dural got a good chance for a goal in the 82nd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Serbülent Mert received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 85th minute. Refik Halit Öğeturk tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 88th minute of the match, Serbülent Mert tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but Refik Halit Öğeturk saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line. After 90 minutes of play, the referee blew the whistle. It was a penalty for ATA SPOR! The ATA SPOR supporters were disappointed that their team didn't take anything from the match, despite matching Anafartalar's performance. The match ended with a win for Anafartalar.
