Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Anıl Ozan Okatay made the kick off which started today's match. If Anıl Ozan Okatay had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 5th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. İlyas Tolga Birsoy made an important save on a dangerous shot by Kahraman Paksoy in the 6th minute. In the 7th minute Anıl Ozan Okatay shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but İlyas Tolga Birsoy saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. A collision led to Kocaelispor SK getting a freekick after 8 minutes play. Şenel Kuddus hit a great ball. In the 13thth minute of the game Anıl Ozan Okatay who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Kocaelispor SK's İlyas Tolga Birsoy was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. In the 16th minute, Avni Işıker hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Seben SK's İdris Uğuz played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Erkan Aybar in the 17th minute of play. İlyas Tolga Birsoy made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Anıl Ozan Okatay in the 26th minute of play. Kocaelispor SK's İlyas Tolga Birsoy proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 29th minute of the match, managed to save Kocaelispor SK from getting a goal against them. When Avni Işıker fell near the penalty area in the 32nd minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Seben SK's protests and gave Avni Işıker a yellow card for diving instead. An unexpectedly hard shot by Anıl Ozan Okatay in the 37th minute of play forced Kocaelispor SK's goalkeeper İlyas Tolga Birsoy to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Şenel Kuddus kicked well hit freekick during the 38th minute of the match. The supporters of Seben SK booed when Kocaelispor SK was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 42 match minutes in a wonderful position. Arın Akbudun didn't get a good kick on the ball. 45 minutes into the match, Seben SK's goal looked a bit too open when Afşin Oğuzbala came free, but İdris Uğuz reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After 48 minutes of play Kocaelispor SK's Şenel Kuddus was too eager in his attempt to stop his opponent and brought him down. With that he got his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. A collision led to Kocaelispor SK getting a freekick after 49 minutes play. Şenel Kuddus hit a great ball. Birant Baykal shot from long distance in the 49th minute, but İlyas Tolga Birsoy was prepared and stopped the ball at the left post. 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 1-0.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Afşin Oğuzbala to make the kick off.

Erkan Aybar charged in rather forcefully in the 65th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Erkan Aybar the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. After 65 played minutes Kocaelispor SK got a freekick which was hit by Erkan Aybar. Kahraman Paksoy struck a weak shot in the 67th minute. İlyas Tolga Birsoy didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Seben SK. Seben SK's Kahraman Paksoy got a good chance for a goal in the 70th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After having played for 74 minutes, Kahraman Paksoy managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Seben SK's supporters crossed their fingers, but Kahraman Paksoy was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Kahraman Paksoy scored 2-0 in the 78th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of İlyas Tolga Birsoy, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Kahraman Paksoy blasted a shot towards the goal in the 81st minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without İlyas Tolga Birsoy having to make a save. 86 minutes into the match, Kocaelispor SK's goal looked a bit too open when Anıl Ozan Okatay came free, but İlyas Tolga Birsoy reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. İlyas Tolga Birsoy took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Kahraman Paksoy, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 97th minute of the match Birant Baykal shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but İlyas Tolga Birsoy showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball.
