Georgi Benishev started the match with the kick off. 8 minutes into the game, Alexey Torbov was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player.

Bahri Tolunay sent away a hard shot on goal in the 13th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.

In the 19th minute, Baycan Ünsan hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. When Yanislav Plachkov came up free with the goalie in the 20th minute, the SPARROWS fans jumped to their feet.
