Küre Stadium
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Vahap İmam started the match with the kick off. After a defensive mix-up in Küre FK's zone, Rüstem Çoğan stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Hüsamettin Yaman came out of the goal and Rüstem Çoğan tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. In the 9th minute, Serbülent Öksal got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. An unexpectedly hard shot by Hulusi Ülgen in the 11th minute of play forced ✮ ☆ ★ NİĞDE F.C ★ ☆ ✮'s goalkeeper Baran Demirtuğ to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Hüsamettin Yaman came out of the goal in the 13th minute to try and stop a shot by ✮ ☆ ★ NİĞDE F.C ★ ☆ ✮'s Rüstem Çoğan. But to his dismay, Rüstem Çoğan quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-1. After 19 minutes, Hulusi Ülgen mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Küre FK and the ✮ ☆ ★ NİĞDE F.C ★ ☆ ✮ players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 19th minute, Hulusi Ülgen hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Baltasar Markel might have been able to make a better finish in the 24th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Hüsamettin Yaman. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Baltasar Markel ran back to his position shaking his head. After 26 played minutes, ✮ ☆ ★ NİĞDE F.C ★ ☆ ✮'s Balaban Necmi shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Hüsamettin Yaman came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in ✮ ☆ ★ NİĞDE F.C ★ ☆ ✮ reached it. An unexpectedly hard shot by Rüstem Çoğan in the 33rd minute of play forced Küre FK's goalkeeper Hüsamettin Yaman to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 36 minutes into the match, ✮ ☆ ★ NİĞDE F.C ★ ☆ ✮'s goalkeeper Baran Demirtuğ had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Vahap İmam. With his leg Baran Demirtuğ managed to avoid a goal in the 37thth minute, when Küre FK's Vahap İmam fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. After some fancy dribbling in the 43rd minute, Rüstem Çoğan managed to get in a good position for a shot. ✮ ☆ ★ NİĞDE F.C ★ ☆ ✮'s supporters rose to their feet, but Rüstem Çoğan was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Hüsamettin Yaman breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Hüsamettin Yaman took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Rüstem Çoğan, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Rüstem Çoğan was the one to do the kick off. Baran Demirtuğ took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Vahap İmam, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. A hard shot 65 in the game by Rüstem Çoğan from a close distance when the talented Hüsamettin Yaman managed to make a qualified save. Küre FK's players were relieved. Küre FK's Hüsamettin Yaman proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 68th minute of the match, managed to save Küre FK from getting a goal against them. After 69 played minutes Küre FK got a freekick which was hit by Şanver Tümerkin. Serbülent Öksal's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Hüsamettin Yaman read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 71st minute of play. 75 minutes into the match, ✮ ☆ ★ NİĞDE F.C ★ ☆ ✮'s goal looked a bit too open when Vahap İmam came free, but Baran Demirtuğ reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After having played for 79 minutes, Burhanettin Acun managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. ✮ ☆ ★ NİĞDE F.C ★ ☆ ✮'s supporters crossed their fingers, but Burhanettin Acun 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 80th minute of the match Balaban Necmi shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but Hüsamettin Yaman showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball. Küre FK's Hüsamettin Yaman played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Rüstem Çoğan in the 82nd minute of play. ✮ ☆ ★ NİĞDE F.C ★ ☆ ✮'s Sacit Develi shoveled away a really nice long shot in the 83rd minute of play. The shot was stopped by Hüsamettin Yaman but with some difficulty. Baran Demirtuğ didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Vahap İmam went, in the 87th minute, to the upper right corner, 2-1 was the resulting score. Vahap İmam took the ball and in the 94 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Baran Demirtuğ. Baran Demirtuğ dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 3-1.
