Spectators: 7791 (Terracing: 5844, Seating: 1792, VIP seats: 155) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Julian Drab took the kick off in the first half of the match. After a rather tough play, AksaraySpor-68's Recep Özdener got a free kick in the 8th minute. The crowd rose to their feet as ツ✿❦Vumbura Pirates❦✿ツ's Julian Drab slotted home a wonderful shot that went in to the left of Ali Kağan Sevimli. That made the score 1-0 after 12 minutes of play. Ali Kağan Sevimli took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Haşim Paye, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 19 minutes into the match, ツ✿❦Vumbura Pirates❦✿ツ's goal looked a bit too open when Nicolás Sartori came free, but Ali Faruk Yalazalp reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 22nd minute, Nicolás Sartori hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. ツ✿❦Vumbura Pirates❦✿ツ's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Matthis Marant in the 24th minute. After taking down the ball on ツ✿❦Vumbura Pirates❦✿ツ's corner Abdulkadir Üngörmüş fired away a hard shot, but the defenders efficiently covered the most dangerous angles and Ali Kağan Sevimli quite easily take care of the ball. ツ✿❦Vumbura Pirates❦✿ツ's Ali Faruk Yalazalp played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Nicolás Sartori in the 26th minute of play. After some careless play in the ツ✿❦Vumbura Pirates❦✿ツ defense, Mohamed Ben Adjani kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Ali Faruk Yalazalp. The ツ✿❦Vumbura Pirates❦✿ツ fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Ali Faruk Yalazalp should have stopped the shot. Haşim Paye sent away a hard shot on goal in the 43rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. In the 44th minute, Julian Drab left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The ツ✿❦Vumbura Pirates❦✿ツ fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 2-1. Yalçın Demirsah hit a great freekick 47 minutes into the match.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Mohamed Ben Adjani made a kick off. Ali Faruk Yalazalp was out of position in the 57 minute of play, and Nicolás Sartori capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Nicolás Sartori really showed his touch with that goal: 2-2. In the 73rd minute of the match, Hüseyin Cahit Safih tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but Ali Faruk Yalazalp saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line. 75 minutes had been played when some careless play by ツ✿❦Vumbura Pirates❦✿ツ's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Aybek Hafi was slow to take the kick. During this time AksaraySpor-68's players had a chance to rest. The corner went over the outstretched arms of AksaraySpor-68's goalie and right to Abdulkadir Üngörmüş. He fired away a shot at goal, but the shot had too much spin, and it went just outside the goal. AksaraySpor-68's manager breathed a sigh of relief on the sidelines as his team had managed to escape an almost certain goal. When Haşim Paye came up free with the goalie in the 79th minute, the ツ✿❦Vumbura Pirates❦✿ツ 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 Haşim Paye couldn't finish the play. Hüseyin Cahit Safih could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 81st minute of the match, but Ali Faruk Yalazalp made a huge save. The supporters of ツ✿❦Vumbura Pirates❦✿ツ booed when AksaraySpor-68 was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 87 match minutes in a wonderful position. Tayfur Birge didn't get a good kick on the ball. ツ✿❦Vumbura Pirates❦✿ツ's Matthis Marant couldn't find anyone to pass the ball to, so he shot a long shot towards the goal in the 88th minute. The shot went wide which resulted in a goal kick for AksaraySpor-68. 2-3 became the score in the 90th minute when Mohamed Ben Adjani elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. After 94 minutes of play, ツ✿❦Vumbura Pirates❦✿ツ's Julian Drab made it 3-3 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Ali Kağan Sevimli was left in no man's land by his defense there! Jeers came from both ends of the stadium when the final whistle went. Neither team had looked impressive and the draw seeemd a fair result.
