Galatasaray beating to Schalke in Germany with three goals and came in the quarter finals. Burak Yilmaz was a shining star on the match.<\/h1>\n

Galatasaray reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League after edging out valiant Schalke at the Veltins-Arena.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite taking an early lead through Roman Neustadter, the German side were ultimately undone by strikes from Hamit Altintop and Burak Yilmaz just before the break.<\/span><\/p>\n

The striker \u2014 who helped fire Chelsea to their famous triumph in Munich last season \u2014 is in the quarter-finals after Galatasaray won a thriller in Germany.<\/p>\n

Goal-machine Burak Yilmaz notched his\u00a0EIGHTH\u00a0<\/strong>European goal of the campaign to effectively seal a dramatic away goals win for the Turkish champions at the Veltin Arena.<\/p>\n

Gala set the early pace in Gelsenkirchen and Selcuk Inan played a tidy one-two with Drogba on 13 minutes \u2014 before firing too close to Timo Hildebrand.<\/p>\n

But the Bundesliga side took a shock lead when Fernando Muslera and his defence twice failed to clear a corner, allowing Roman Neustadter to slot home from deep inside the area.<\/p>\n

Teemu Pukki \u2014 the Finnish replacement for Lewis Holtby \u2014 then shot straight at Muslera after twisting and turning his way in from the left.<\/p>\n

All was quiet for the Germans, but they were shaken when Emmanuel Eboue rampaged down the right before picking out Wesley Sneijder after 37 minutes.<\/p>\n

The Netherlands star smashed his snapshot inches wide of the right-hand post.<\/p>\n

Their wait for an equaliser was over, though, when former Schalke star Hamit Altintop haunted his old club with a thundering drive just inside the same piece of woodwork a minute later.<\/p>\n

Burak Yilmaz turned the game on its head soon after \u2014 flicking past the hapless Hildebrand from 12 yards after chasing down well.<\/p>\n

Schalke started brightly after the break, with 19-year-old duo Pukki and Julian Draxler causing constant problems at the back for Gala.<\/p>\n

The latter so nearly equalised on the night when he tricked his way past three men before curling his effort narrowly wide.<\/p>\n

Then Michel Bastos, on loan from Lyon, forced home at the far post after Marco Hoger’s shot smashed back off the bar just after the hour.<\/p>\n

Schalke pushed and pushed \u2014 but Gala held on to the most slender of leads with Drogba and the substituted Sneijder barely involved.<\/p>\n

Galatasaray ace Sneijder said: \u201cWe definitely deserved it \u2014 we showed a lot of spirit.\u201d<\/p>\n

Altintop admitted: \u201cWe were the luckier team today.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nerves were finally settled in the\u00a0FIFTH<\/strong>\u00a0minute of injury time as Nordin Amrabat found himself clean through on the break.<\/p>\n

The substitute needed two opportunities to force past Hildebrand \u2014 but it was enough to kill the tie and take Galatasaray through.<\/p>\n
