Spectators: 7449 (Terracing: 5588, Seating: 1713, VIP seats: 148) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Ataman Uraza started the match with the kick off. 3 minutes into the match, Taci Argün notched a goal, 1-0, to the right of Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤'s Metin Aktaş. Metin Aktaş was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. After 12th play minutes Taci Argün shot 2-0, a short shot which went by Metin Aktaş and just under the crossbar into goal. In the 17th minute Augusto Xabier shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Metin Aktaş saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. An unexpected shot in the 22nd minute by Taci Argün got the crowd on their feet, but to their dismay it went out on the left side. In the 24th minute, Mauro Lobo 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. In the 26th minute, Ma Peng Yuan hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 27th minute, Güner Kabadayı sent off a long shot on goal, but the shot was nowhere near the goal and Club Atlético Magallanes's Leon Oliverio didn't even have to move. The supporters of Club Atlético Magallanes booed when Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤ was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 32 match minutes in a wonderful position. Ercüment Gürçınar didn't get a good kick on the ball. Taci Argün could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 33rd minute of the match, but Metin Aktaş made a huge save. In the 36th minute Club Atlético Magallanes were awarded a corner. Mauro Lobo went to the cornerflag to take it. Thanks to some nice moves Taci Argün could shoot a difficult shot in the 38th minute, which Metin Aktaş however easily saved by the left post. An unexpectedly hard shot by Augusto Xabier in the 40th minute of play forced Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤'s goalkeeper Metin Aktaş to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. If Arif Bilge Kumanbay had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 41st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. All the noise was coming from the home fans when the whistle went for half-time. The home team had fought hardest to put themselves in a deserved lead.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Augusto Xabier to make the kick off. In the 53rd minute, Taci Argün made a precise shot to the right of Metin Aktaş. Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤'s defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 4-0. Club Atlético Magallanes's Mauro Lobo got a good chance for a goal in the 58th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After 64 played minutes Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤ got a freekick which was hit by Ruhi Sulasi. Ataman Uraza struck a weak shot in the 70th minute. Leon Oliverio didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤. In the 71st minute of the game, Ataman Uraza landed unfortunately after trying to head the ball, and pulled a muscle in the back, so badly that he had to leave the field. Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤ made a substitution. Şenel İlker replaced Necdet Koçyiğit. 84 minutes had been played when some careless play by Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤'s defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Mauro Lobo was slow to take the kick. During this time Club Atlético Magallanes's players had a chance to rest. Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤'s Metin Aktaş played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Augusto Xabier in the 85th minute of play. Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤'s Arif Bilge Kumanbay got a good chance for a goal in the 90th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. With his leg Leon Oliverio managed to avoid a goal in the 91stth minute, when Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤'s Beşir Karaoğlan fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. Güner Kabadayı kicked well hit freekick during the 95th minute of the match. When the referee ended the match the Club Atlético Magallanes players were able to celebrate. They had won a fair victory and recieved the ovations of their fans.
