Spectators: 7243 (Terracing: 5433, Seating: 1666, VIP seats: 144) After having played for 4 minutes, Reis Müjdat managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Muğlaspor's supporters crossed their fingers, but Reis Müjdat was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Rafet Uçar showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Arda Baybars Özdamar, who was totally free with the ball in the 14th minute. Güner Yiğitcan sent away a hard shot on goal in the 17th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Niyazi Avcu took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Vahdet Tanrıverdi, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. If Vahdet Tanrıverdi had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 24th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Muğlaspor's Vahdet Tanrıverdi got a good chance for a goal in the 33rd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. In the 35th minute Reis Müjdat shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Niyazi Avcu saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Rafet Uçar stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Arda Baybars Özdamar's shot from short distance in the 40th minute. 42 minutes into the match, Muğlaspor's goal looked a bit too open when Arda Baybars Özdamar came free, but Rafet Uçar reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

Rafet Uçar breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. In the 73rd minute, Ali Hamza Yamaç hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Orhan Seyfi Yavuzalp thought of kicking away a contribution in front of goal but messed it up so badly that the ball went to the right of an astonished Niyazi Avcu, a very annoying self made goal in the 74th minute which led to 0-1. After 79 minutes of play, Muğlaspor's Vahdet Tanrıverdi made it 0-2 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Niyazi Avcu was left in no man's land by his defense there! Güner Yiğitcan fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 83rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Rafet Uçar having to interfere. When Güner Yiğitcan came up free with the goalie in the 85th minute, the Balamir Youth Academy 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 Güner Yiğitcan couldn't finish the play. Muğlaspor's Rafet Uçar played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Güner Yiğitcan in the 86th minute of play.
