Caycuma Stadium
Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Mehmet Akif Naci kicked off to start the match. 3 minutes into the match, Mehmet Akif Naci had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Gazi Cezri. Caycuma's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Mehmet Akif Naci was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-1. In the 6th minute, Giray Elmas got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Giray Elmas might have been able to make a better finish in the 21st minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Tuna Kutertan. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Giray Elmas ran back to his position shaking his head. 23 minutes into the match, Malatyaspor's Bedir Bozbora sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Gazi Cezri narrowly saved just below the crossbar. If Bedir Bozbora had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 27th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Haydar Hürsoy kicked well hit freekick during the 28th minute of the match. Tuna Kutertan made a fantastic save in the 29th minute, when Arda Göksel Hafi sent off a good shot on target. If Mehmet Akif Naci had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 31st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Bedir Bozbora sent away a hard shot on goal in the 36th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. Tuna Kutertan made a fantastic save in the 44th minute, when Arda Göksel Hafi sent off a good shot on target. Giray Elmas struck a weak shot in the 46th minute. Tuna Kutertan didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Caycuma. The crowd was extremely unhappy with the home team's performance in the first half. They were losing 0-2.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Giray Elmas stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. After having played for 68 minutes, Mehmet Akif Naci managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Malatyaspor's supporters crossed their fingers, but Mehmet Akif Naci was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. With a little luck, Caycuma's Gazi Cezri got control of the ball when Bedir Bozbora tried to sneak it across the goal line. Tuna Kutertan showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Giray Elmas in the 76th minute of the match. In the 81st play minute Bedir Bozbora came free and shot an unsuspected shot which went into goal from the right pole behind a surprised Gazi Cezri. 0-4. Bedir Bozbora received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 85th minute. Gazi Cezri tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Gazi Cezri stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Mehmet Akif Naci's shot from short distance in the 88th minute. Tuna Kutertan showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Giray Elmas, who was totally free with the ball in the 89th minute. Bedir Bozbora recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 91st minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Giray Elmas sent away a hard shot on goal in the 92nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. When Mehmet Akif Naci came up free with the goalie in the 97th minute, the Malatyaspor 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 Mehmet Akif Naci couldn't finish the play. Malatyaspor's supporters were very happy and cheered loudly because their team had won after a very close match.
