Please press f5 for updates throughout the match

1835: Just over 1 hour until kick off as Ankaragucu take on Adanaspor at Adana in the Turkish PTT Lig. According to various Ankaragucu facebook pages, Mehmet Yiginer will announce before kick off the outcome of the transfer ban. An announcement was expected at 1300 today but as of yet nothing has been announced.

1855: Ankaragucu go into the game bottom of the table and 9 points adrift of the teams above them, three points would take a bit of pressure off the young players as the club looks to lift the transfer ban.

Adanaspor won the last match between the two teams 1-0 in Ankara at the start of the season thanks to an 85th minute goal from Chuks Nwogbo.

2000: Game is underway !!


1- Bright start from Ankaragucu winning a corner after only 1 minute, Timur looking sharp up top.

10 - Even game so far, Timur nearly on the end of a through ball but Tolgahan comes out to collect the ball.

17 - A message of support from our Gencler friends as Oz Kanka messages Haydi Ankaragucu !

21 - Adanaspor living dangerously as Teoman nearly in on goal and Tolgahan makes a mess of the clearance. Ankaragucu growing in confidence but Adana look dangerous on the attack.

24 - Sedat fires his shot over the bar from about 30 yards for Adana.

25 -  Kaan kanak goes inches wide with his free kick, so close as Ankaragucu nearly take the lead.

32 - Ankaragucu counter attack ends when Kaan makes the wrong decision when he puts his shot wide with men in support. Again encouraging signs from Ankaragucu.

37 - Kaan whips in a dangerous free kick but no one can get on the end of it, Ankaragucu look comfortable but need to put the ball in the net.

45 - Teoman so close to giving Ankaragucu the lead, lovely cross into the box from Mert which Teoman headed past Tolgahan but the ball went inches past the post.

Half Time - Adanaspor 0-0 Ankaragucu, excellent spirited first half performance from Ankaragucu, but as so often the case Ankaragucu just can't get that breakthrough. Adanaspor will be looking to up their performance in the second half as they showed nothing going forward. Bayram will be pretty happy that he had a quiet first 45 minutes.

2050 - Cider Kanka John, comments "exciting times, guess we didn't lift the transfer ban ?" We are hoping to find out the answer to that question after the match.

46 - Second half under way, Serkan plays in Kaan  but his first touch lets him down. Wasted chance from Kaan.

49 - Another chance for Kaan but he shoots high and wide, looks like Kaan has lost his shooting boots tonight

54 - Burak Calik played through on goal but shoots hight and wide for Adanaspor. Good response from Adana since the goal.

61 - Battle Damaged Damon and Timotheos Leonidas join us and the later comments, " goals lead to victories, victories lead to points, points keep us in the league. Hope is rising.

69 - Great chance for Teoman after mistake in the Adana defence , but Tolgahan saves before the defender clears the ball.

75- Nwogbo fires just wide for Adanaspor, seconds later Adana had a chance at the back post but the ball was headed back across goal with no one on the end of it.
