Kulu Stadium
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Buğrahan Bardakçı kicked off to start the match. 4 minutes into the match, Işıkalp Memduh had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Ergün Tanırcan. Beytüssebap FK's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Işıkalp Memduh was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-0. Fazıl Aktay showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Buğrahan Bardakçı, who was totally free with the ball in the 7th minute. Ziya Onur Sırat received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 8th minute. Ergün Tanırcan tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.

When Ziya Onur Sırat came up free with the goalie in the 17th minute, the Kulu fans jumped to their feet.

Fazıl Aktay showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Mahsun Dağtekin, who was totally free with the ball in the 20th minute.

Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. If Buğrahan Bardakçı had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 45th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. When the referee blew for the end of the half the home team players were clearly happier, as they went in to the break leading 3-0.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Ziya Onur Sırat was the one to do the kick off.

After a rather tough play, Kulu's Ahmet Efe Akçakaya got a free kick in the 58th minute. 58 minutes into the match, Beytüssebap FK's Bahadır Betik broke free and took a long shot that unfortunately flew wide.

The referee ignored Beytüssebap FK's protests and gave Uğurcan Adsoy a yellow card for diving instead. Uğurcan Adsoy hit a great freekick 87 minutes into the match. Ziya Onur Sırat might have been able to make a better finish in the 88th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Ergün Tanırcan. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Ziya Onur Sırat ran back to his position shaking his head. Mahsun Dağtekin fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 90th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Fazıl Aktay having to interfere. After some fancy dribbling in the 93rd minute, Mahsun Dağtekin managed to get in a good position for a shot. Beytüssebap FK's supporters rose to their feet, but Mahsun Dağtekin was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Fazıl Aktay breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Buğrahan Bardakçı struck a weak shot in the 95th minute. Fazıl Aktay didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Beytüssebap FK. Kulu's fans were exulted and cheered after their team won in a match that could easily have gone the other way.
