The visitors sat back for much of the first half knowing that they simply had to better Cluj's result against Manchester United to progress.

Braga took full advantage and were ahead after 32 minutes when Marcelo Mossoro latched on to a deflected cross from Alan to curl home from the edge of the area.

Galatasaray responded after the break and equalised when Nordin Amrabat crossed for Burak Yilmaz to send a glancing header home from close range.

Aydin Yilmaz turned home from close range 10 minutes later to turn the game on its head and send the Turkish champions through at Cluj's expense.
