Clear skies welcomed the 43329 spectators who had made their way to 21 Temmuz Stadı. Johan Tegflod was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Halvor Langset and Galaye De Vriese. merto decided to use a 4-4-2 set up. Lineup: Arer - Minucci, Zocchi, Tull, Kırat - Talamonti, Bârsan, Swianiewicz, Stenfors - Ibn-Latif, Carcavilla.

Selvi started off with a 2-5-3 lineup. Starters: Arias - Zeycan, Berke - Taivalmäki, Petrel, van der Ban, Payır, Marifet - Bertucci, Tellkvist, Havurinne.

Always quick and a menace to his opponents, C. Bertucci was very close to getting through after 14 minutes, but he could only put the ball into the keeper's arms. Selvi took the lead after 17 minutes making the score 0 - 1. C. Bertucci placed the ball out of reach for the home side's keeper after a fine move, coming in from the left. After 28 minutes of play, S. Zocchi evened things up for merto with an impressive goal coming up the middle. 1 - 1. The teams went for the halftime break at 1 - 1. Selvi enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 56 percent of possession.

The visitors' central defence should have had no trouble clearing the pass to M. Ibn-Latif, but the merto player managed to shrug them off and fired a low shot past the keeper to give his team the lead. 2 - 1! Selvi's right side looked dangerous 56 minutes in, but A. Arer made a good save on M. Tellkvist's hard shot to the top corner. A. Arer's name was chanted throughout the stadium after he made a fantastic save from C. Bertucci's shot from the left 72 minutes into the match. Selvi claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 57 percent.

merto's best player was T. Swianiewicz. On the other hand, A. Talamonti's play was disheartening. Selvi's top performer was clearly C. Bertucci. M. Marifet was a disappointment, however. The match ends 2 - 1.
