Aurelien Chedjou's second half equalizer saved Galatasary from falling at home in their first leg of the Champions League round of 16 encounter to Chelsea who had earlier taken the lead through Fernando Torres in the first half.
In the other fixture on the night at Veltin Arena, Schalke suffered a 1-6 defeat to Real Madrid with Karim Benzema, Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo scoring a brace each, while former Real Madrid man Huntelaar scored a consolation goal for the home team.
The win hands Real Madrid a huge advantage to the second leg tie which can be described as a done deal for the Los Blancos.
Chelsea on the other hand have their destiny in their hands as they welcome Galatasary in the reverse fixture.
