Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Mustafa Anıl Çinucen kicked off to start the match. Yakut Onatkan stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Erhan Nuh's shot from short distance in the 9th minute. An unexpectedly hard shot by Ali Hamza Ergintuğ in the 14th minute of play forced Hozat FK's goalkeeper Yakut Onatkan to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. The corner led EzERiM's Mehmet Anıl Salah to fire away a dangerous shot which Yakut Onatkan despite some difficulties managed to get hold on the ball. Ali Hamza Ergintuğ sent away a hard shot on goal in the 18th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After 20 minutes, Ali Hamza Ergintuğ made it 0-1 with a short kick to the right side. Hozat FK's Yakut Onatkan tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. Hasan Tolgahan took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Mustafa Anıl Çinucen, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Yakut Onatkan made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Erhan Nuh in the 33rd minute of play. In the 40th minute of the match Atalay Pekiner shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but Hasan Tolgahan showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball. 41 minutes into the match, Hozat FK's goal looked a bit too open when Erhan Nuh came free, but Yakut Onatkan reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Erhan Nuh sent away a hard shot on goal in the 43rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After a very even first half the match was still tied. The players went to their respective dressing rooms to discuss the tactics for the second half.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Erhan Nuh to make the kick off. After some fancy dribbling in the 53rd minute, Ali Hamza Ergintuğ managed to get in a good position for a shot. EzERiM's supporters rose to their feet, but Ali Hamza Ergintuğ was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Yakut Onatkan breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. In the 55th minute, EzERiM's Erhan Nuh ran free of his marker and smoothly shot the ball into the goal behind Yakut Onatkan. Yakut Onatkan yelled at his defense, as they had left him out to dry. 1-2. In the 59th minute Mustafa Anıl Çinucen shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Hasan Tolgahan saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Akif Yetişbey's late challenge caught a EzERiM's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Akif Yetişbey helped the player get up and apologised. The audience was convinced that Mustafa Anıl Çinucen's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Hasan Tolgahan was relentless in the 68th minute of the game. 71 minutes into the game, Güray Karahan was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Hozat FK's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave EzERiM the free kick. After a rather tough play, Hozat FK's Güray Karahan got a free kick in the 71st minute. Erhan Nuh received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 84th minute. Yakut Onatkan tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Hozat FK's Yakut Onatkan proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 92nd minute of the match, managed to save Hozat FK from getting a goal against them. Yakut Onatkan stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Erhan Nuh's shot from short distance in the 95th minute. In the 97th minute Güray Karahan shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Hasan Tolgahan saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. EzERiM played a much better game than Hozat FK and deserved their victory. The Hozat FK players were clearly disappointed as they left the ground.
