Date: 20-9-2004
Wrote: EP's reporter in Turkey Fatih Ozkan

In the derby of Ankara, Gouda's Ankaragucu won with a single goal that Birol scored in the first half. Genclerbirligi had gone to the pitch without the solid defender Abdelzaher El Saka. Genclerbirligi played better and got the reign of the game but Ankaragucu was the side to produce a goal in order to get the points.



El Saka didn't feature in the game...


First Half:

In the sixth minute, Youla found the ball in front and had only the goalie to beat but the Ankaragucu defenders cleared off the danger.

Two minutes later, Tayfun hit the free-kick towards the goal but Orkun sent the ball for a corner with his fingertips.

Four minutes after the free-kick, Ayhan crossed the ball from the right into the area. Birol jumped well at the far post and he found the net: 1-0.

Ozgur found the ball on the front line of the area and dispatched the ball towards the goal but Omer got it with ease in the 40th minute.

Three minutes before the half ended, Guel gave a spectacular pass to Birol who entered the area but Umit Bozkurt sent the ball into touch.

The first half ended with a single goal for Gouda's Ankaragucu, but it was easily seen that Genclerbirligi was the side who got the game under control, but they wasted the opportunities.

Second Half:


The free-kick specialist Yilmaz hit a free-kick. The scorer Birol headed the ball narrowly off the post, in 58th minute.

Three minutes later, Mehmet Nas centered the ball from right, Youla headed but the ball went over the bar.

In the minute 63, Gouda went off the pitch to be replaced by Evren.

In the minute 70, Umit shot in low well outside of the area but Orkun sent the ball for a corner.

Seven minutes later, Guel crossed the ball to Umut waiting inside the area. Umut made a shot from an acute angle but Omer got the ball easily.

In the 80th minute, Ceyhun hit a fierce shot inside the area but the ball skimmed near the post.

Two minutes later, Orkun fisted the ball and Umit sent it back at the goal but it went narrowly over the bar.

Gouda's Ankaragucu beat Saka's Genclerbirligi 1-0 in the Ankara derby and both sides have respectable positions in the table.
