In 2000, Galatasaray won the UEFA Super Cup by dominating Real Madrid under the management of Romanian coach Mircea Lucescu.
SIGNIFICANT ACHIEVEMENTS IN EUROPE
Apart from the UEFA Cup and UEFA Super Cup, Galatasaray achieved many important successes in Europe. Playing in the semi-finals once and in the quarter-finals twice in the Champion Clubs’ Cup, the yellow-red players found their place among the last 8 teams in the UEFA Champions League 3 times. Galatasaray, which reached the quarter-finals of the Champion Clubs Cup for the first time in the 1962-1963 season and was eliminated by the Italian team Milan, again bowed to the Legia Warsaw team of Poland in the quarter-finals in the 1969-1970 season. In the 1988-1989 season, when Galatasaray won the title of “Conqueror of Europe” with its successful results under the management of coach Mustafa Denizli, and achieved victories in Neuchatel Xamax and Monaco, it reached the semi-finals of the Champion Clubs Cup, but the Romanian team was eliminated by Steaua Bucharest and lost its final dreams to its rival.
After the organization started to be played under the name of UEFA Champions League, the yellow-red team managed to be among the last 8 teams in the 1993-1994 season, when Manchester United won the victory and was included in the Champions League groups for the first time in its history. At that time, in the Champions League status, in which 2 groups of 4 took place, this tour was called group matches and was not shown as the quarter-finals, but the yellow-red team became one of the best 8 teams in Europe.
Galatasaray reached the quarter-finals in the 2000-2001 season under the management of coach Mircea Lucescu. Galatasaray, which left the groups in two separate rounds and found its place among the last 8 teams, was eliminated by Real Madrid in the quarter-finals.

Galatasaray made its fans smile by winning victories against big clubs such as Real Madrid, Barcelona, Milan, Juventus, Manchester United, Liverpool, Paris Saint-Germain, Borussia Dortmund and Arsenal in European cups.
WAS ELIMINATED 1 TIME BY LOTS, JUMPED 1 TIME
Galatasaray experienced disappointment once before the quarter-finals of the “drawing lots” method used in the past in case of two teams failing to win in European cups, and became the lucky side once.
Matching the Swiss team Zurich in the second round of the 1963-64 season of the Champion Clubs Cup, Galatasaray lost the first match 2-0 away and won the home match 2-0. According to the practice at that time, when the result of the 3rd match played in Rome, the capital of Italy, as a neutral field, ended 2-2, as a result of the draw, Zurich passed the round and made its name in the quarter-finals.
The yellow-red team faced the Czechoslovak team Spartak Trnava in the second round of the Champion Clubs Cup in the 1969-70 season. After losing the first match 1-0 away, Galatasaray won the regular time of the return match with the same score. When the score did not change in the overtime section, the draw was made again and Galatasaray advanced to the quarter-finals.
THE MOST DIFFERENT WIN AND LOSE
