Super Eagles forward Victor Osimhen was on target for Galatasaray as they overcame a fightback by Juventus to secure a place in the Champions League round of 16.
Having led 5-2 from the first leg in Turkey, Galatasaray fell 3-0 behind after 90 minutes in Turin, leaving them level with their hosts.
The difference came in extra time when Osimhen fired in a fine finish to hand back the lead to Galatasaray.
Juve kept pushing for yet another aggregate equaliser but it was Yilmaz who netted again for Galatasaray to make it 7-5 in their favour. They then held on to win against 10-man Juve.
Earlier, Real Madrid saw off Benfica despite an early lead by the Portuguese side which saw them level 1-1 having trailed 1-0 from the first leg.
But Real put up a strong fight, with Vinicius Junior and Aurelien Tchouameni scoring two goals to seal a 3-1 aggregate victory for the Spanish side.
Elsewhere, defending champions Paris Saint Germain played a 2-2 draw with Monaco, but their first-leg 3-2 victory means they advance to the round of 16 with a 5-4 aggregate win.
