In the 7th week of the AKSA Süper Lig, the Nicosia derby was played at Şehit Hüseyin Ruso Stadium. Küçük Kaymaklı and Çetinkaya shared the points, with the teams leaving 2-2 draws.

Away side Çetinkaya started the match on the attack and found the early goal. In the 2nd minute, Muammer Tip took the free kick and made it 1-0 with a fine strike. Kaymaklı pushed for an equalizer but could not find the net in the first half, which ended with Çetinkaya in control.

Kaymaklı began the second half searching for an equalizer and tied the score in the 59th minute through Mehmet Öztürk's goal. Çetinkaya responded quickly, however. In the 62nd minute, Ali Nazlıoğlu's delivery from a corner kick put them back in front.

It looked like Çetinkaya would win the match, but in added time Kaymaklı was awarded a penalty. In the 90+5th minute, Billy Michael converted the penalty to make it 2-2. With this result, both teams took one point each, and their totals rose to 6.
