Spectators: 40 (Terracing: 31, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Andrés Vombergar took the kick off in the first half of the match. In the 3rd minute Nicasio Ostargi shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Arif Nihat Yıldıray saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 13 minutes into the match, Barrilete Cósmico FC's goalkeeper Işık Günay had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Benicio Beliran. Arif Nihat Yıldıray made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Andrés Vombergar in the 17th minute of play. Daniel Isias made a great header on Barrilete Cósmico FC's corner, it was just that Estación Q.'s Arif Nihat Yıldıray managed to reach the ball for a save. An unexpectedly hard shot by Andrés Vombergar in the 20th minute of play forced Estación Q.'s goalkeeper Arif Nihat Yıldıray to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Barrilete Cósmico FC's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Daniel Isias in the 22nd minute. Barrilete Cósmico FC's Alonzo Caton quite brazenly broke a throw-in by Macit Serter, made in the 28th minute of the game. Benicio Beliran could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 29th minute of the match, but Işık Günay made a huge save. After 33 played minutes Estación Q. got a freekick which was hit by Benicio Beliran. Alonzo Caton hit a great freekick 41 minutes into the match. After 44 minutes of play, Barrilete Cósmico FC's Andrés Vombergar made it 0-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Arif Nihat Yıldıray was left in no man's land by his defense there! Disappointed in the 0-1 score, the home team went to the dressing room to adjust tactics for the second half.

The wind increased when Benicio Beliran made the kick off in the second half. After having played for 51 minutes, Benicio Beliran managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Estación Q.'s supporters crossed their fingers, but Benicio Beliran was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. In the 57th match minute, Barrilete Cósmico FC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Sebastian Celio to maneuver through the defense. If Benicio Beliran had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 60th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Işık Günay showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Benicio Beliran in the 60th minute of the match. Estación Q. made a substitution. Mauro Todor replaced Enginalp İdilkurt. In the 74th minute of the game Macit Serter made a throw-in which Nils-Erik Kellman played forward. 79 minutes into the match, Andrzej Zapolski notched a goal, 1-1, to the right of Barrilete Cósmico FC's Işık Günay. Işık Günay was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Işık Günay made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Andrzej Zapolski in the 89th minute of play. The throw-in from Macit Serter in the 95th minute of the game was unfortunally taken care of by Barrilete Cósmico FC's Sebastian Celio. The final whistle blew with the score still tied, and both teams left the pitch thinking about the missed chances that could have given their team the win.
