Spectators: 42 (Terracing: 32, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Rune Tronstad made the kick off which started today's match. Fred Santos was astounded when the referee showed him the red card after a seemingly innocent challenge, 3 minutes into the match. In a very dangerous position, a player in SARI ZEYBEK fell when an opponent tried to get the ball from him in the 2nd minute. Penalty! Jan-Kenneth Frøystad shot the penalty kick by force right in the crossbar. No goal. If Chris Godø had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 9th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Jan-Frode Aarseth made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Soner Torlak in the 13th minute of play. After 13 minutes, İrfan-Can Kahveci mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the SARI ZEYBEK and the NTA19 players grew even worse after the yellow card. The supporters of NTA19 booed when SARI ZEYBEK was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 13 match minutes in a wonderful position. İrfan-Can Kahveci didn't get a good kick on the ball. Thanks to some nice foot action and superb ball handling Berker Rıza Satı in the 16th minute a chance for a shot on goal. With an extended leg and a bit of luck Jan-Frode Aarseth prevented the ball from getting in the gole. After having played for 18 minutes, İrfan-Can Kahveci managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. SARI ZEYBEK's supporters crossed their fingers, but İrfan-Can Kahveci was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Altay Bayındır made an important save on a dangerous shot by Rune Grøndalen in the 20th minute.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Soner Torlak was the one to do the kick off. Rune Tronstad's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Altay Bayındır read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 51st minute of play. Thanks to some nice moves Berker Rıza Satı could shoot a difficult shot in the 60th minute, which Jan-Frode Aarseth however easily saved by the left post. Soner Torlak received a nice pass, split the defenders, and ran untouched towards the goal. Jan-Frode Aarseth came out and tried to block the shot, but Soner Torlak slotted it home off the left post making it 1-1 in the 63rd minute. 70 minutes into the match, SARI ZEYBEK's goal looked a bit too open when Rune Grøndalen came free, but Altay Bayındır reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After a rather tough play, NTA19's Olof Leknes got a free kick in the 71st minute. Olof Leknes hit a great freekick 73 minutes into the match. In the 74th minute the ball was on its way in behind NTA19's goalkeeper Jan-Frode Aarseth, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. When Chris Godø fell near the penalty area in the 74th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored NTA19's protests and gave Chris Godø a yellow card for diving instead.
