A collision led to Geçkinli getting a freekick after 20 minutes play. Ali Asım Özen hit a great ball. After 21 played minutes, Fenerbahçe SK's Ali Asım Renan shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Aykut Bilkan 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 Fenerbahçe SK reached it. The audience was convinced that Kemalettin Umay's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Aykut Bilkan was relentless in the 23rd minute of the game.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Fazıl Erencan was the one to do the kick off. During the 53rd minute of the match İshak Orbey completely mistimed his tackle and brought down his opponent. The referee gave İshak Orbey a yellow card, his second in the match, which meant he could no longer take part in the game. In the 53rd match minute, Geçkinli was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by İshak Orbey to maneuver through the defense. In the 57th minute Fazıl Erencan shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Aykut Bilkan saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. If Kemalettin Umay had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 58th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. After some fancy dribbling in the 58th minute, Fazıl Erencan managed to get in a good position for a shot. Fenerbahçe SK's supporters rose to their feet, but Fazıl Erencan was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Aykut Bilkan breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. In the 60th minute the ball was on its way in behind Geçkinli's goalkeeper Aykut Bilkan, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar.

Tuna Çapan made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Birol Temizkal in the 65th minute of play. Ahmet Ziya Sağbilge sent away a hard shot on goal in the 67th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Ali Asım Özen could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 84th minute of the match, but Tuna Çapan made a huge save. When Ahmet Ziya Sağbilge came up free with the goalie in the 96th minute, the Geçkinli fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Ahmet Ziya Sağbilge couldn't finish the play. Fenerbahçe SK's fans were exulted and cheered after their team won in a match that could easily have gone the other way.
