Spectators: 7446 (Terracing: 5586, Seating: 1712, VIP seats: 148) Kamil Üstek started the match with the kick off in front of an excited audience. The corner went over the outstretched arms of BEŞİKTAŞ ALTYAPI's goalie and right to Attilio Fortunato. He fired away a shot at goal, but the shot had too much spin, and it went just outside the goal. BEŞİKTAŞ ALTYAPI's manager breathed a sigh of relief on the sidelines as his team had managed to escape an almost certain goal. An unexpectedly hard shot by Kuzey Değer in the 15th minute of play forced Valdieri's goalkeeper Aurelio Di Lullo to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. If Attilio Fortunato had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 22nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Aurelio Di Lullo showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Ahmet Turan Akyol in the 24th minute of the match.
