Spectators: 7212 (Terracing: 5410, Seating: 1659, VIP seats: 143) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Garip Tayfur kicked off to start the match. Kandemir Mertkan showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Şenol Safa in the 3rd minute of the match. Şenol Safa scored 0-1 in the 5th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Kandemir Mertkan, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Kandemir Mertkan made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Şenol Safa in the 9th minute of play. If Oğuzer Gence had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 11th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After some fancy dribbling in the 14th minute, Oğuzer Gence managed to get in a good position for a shot. Tuzla JK's supporters rose to their feet, but Oğuzer Gence was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Adnan Safi breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Garip Tayfur might have been able to make a better finish in the 16th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Adnan Safi. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Garip Tayfur ran back to his position shaking his head. Oğuzer Gence was extremely unlucky when he, in the 18th minute, took a shot that hit the right post and went out. In the 19th match minute, Sariz was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Hafız Onur to maneuver through the defense. Şenol Safa received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 22nd minute. Kandemir Mertkan tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 24 minutes into the match, Tuzla JK's goal looked a bit too open when Bican Erel came free, but Kandemir Mertkan reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After 24 minutes, Bican Erel made it 0-2 with a short kick to the right side. Tuzla JK's Kandemir Mertkan tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. 27 minutes into the game, Ali Ömer Erginsoy was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Tuzla JK's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Sariz the free kick. The audience was convinced that Şenol Safa's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Kandemir Mertkan was relentless in the 40th minute of the game.

Oğuzer Gence received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 56th minute. Adnan Safi tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Şenol Safa struck a weak shot in the 62nd minute. Kandemir Mertkan didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Sariz.
