With a couple of smart ball manuevers Alex Isak in the 7th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Güvenç Taşan saved Hatayspor from getting behind. Nafiz Revis took the ball and in the 11 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Daniel Buffon. Daniel Buffon dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-0. In the 19th minute, Nafiz Revis reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Daniel Buffon. The goal made the score 2-0. Daniel Buffon made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Süleyman Aksun in the 26th minute of play. A nice corner shot did that İbrahim Ethem Acaralp got away a dangerous shot. Despite this Daniel Buffon quite easily got ahold of the ball to make the save. In the 36th minute Alex Isak shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Güvenç Taşan saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 38 minutes into the match, Kutsikad's goalkeeper Daniel Buffon had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Dario Guillem. Güvenç Taşan showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Alex Isak, who was totally free with the ball in the 39th minute.

In the 53rd minute, Alex Isak hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Daniel Buffon took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from İbrahim Ethem Acaralp, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side.
